HP (Hopping Channel)
Command
The
HP command is used to
set/read the RF module's
hopping channel number. A
channel is one of three layers of
filtration available to the
module.

In order for modules to
communicate with each other, the modules must have the same channel number
since each channel uses a different hopping sequence. Different channels can be
used to prevent modules in one network from listening to transmissions of another.


HT (Time before Wake-up
Initializer) Command
The HT
command is used to set/read
the time of inactivity (no serial or
RF
data is sent or received) before
a wake-up initializer is sent by a
TX (transmitting) RF module.
The HT parameter should be set
shorter than inactivity timeout
[ST Command] time of any RX
(receiving) modules operating in
Cyclic Sleep (SM=4-8). The
wake-up initializer sent by the TX module instructs all RX modules to remain awake to
receive RF data.

From the RX module perspective: After HT time elapses and the inactivity timeout [ST
Command] is met, the RX module goes into cyclic sleep. In cyclic sleep, the RX
module wakes once per sleep interval [SM Command] to check for a wake-up
initializer. When a wake-up initializer is detected, the module stays awake to receive
data. The wake-up initializer must be longer than the cyclic sleep interval to ensure
that sleeping modules detect incoming data.

When HT time elapses, the TX module knows it needs to send a wake-up Initializer
for all RX modules to remain awake and receive the next transmission.


HV (Hardware Version)

The HV
command is used to read the hardware version of the RF module.
