When a transceiver is not in Transmit or Command mode, it will be in Receive Mode listening for data.
While in Receive Mode, subsequent data of up to 80 bytes can be received every hop (20 ms).

A radio will enter Command Mode when data is received over the serial interface from the OEM Host and
contains the “AT+++” (Enter AT Command Mode) command. Once in Command Mode, all data received by
the radio is interpreted as command data. Command Data can be either EEPROM Configuration or On-The-
Fly commands.
