Note: Always ensure that none of the data pipes have the same address.
Each pipe can have up to 5 byte configurable address. Data pipe 0 has a unique 5 byte address. Data
pipes 1-5 share the 4 most significant address bytes. The LSByte must be unique for all 6 pipes. Figure 11.
is an example of how data pipes 0-5 are addressed.
