About xbee reset question

Postby salviador » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:32 pm

Hi, I have a question. Why every 5min the uC send reset xbee?
I see in the code "/communication_csv.c"
at line: 150

what is "prevent a lock-up (duty cycle)" ?

In some countries (e.g. European ones), the duty cycle on the 868MHz band is low. This means that the module will shut down after sending a certain amount of data. To prevent this, we implemented this reset command (which also resets the duty cycle counter) :-)
