Send a sequence of API frames

After you have added at least two API frames to the Send frames area, you can send a sequence of API frames to a radio module running in API mode. For instructions on adding a frame, see Add an API frame.

An API frame sequence contains the list of frames to send as well as configured information about the way the frames will be sent.

  1. In the Send sequence area of the API console, configure the following options:
    • Transmit interval: Specify the amount of time, in milliseconds, to pause between frames. The minimum value is 0ms and the maximum value is 60000ms (1 minute).
    • Repeat times: Select this option to specify the number of times the sequence should be repeated or sent. By default, this value is 1.
    • Loop infinitely: Select this option to send the sequence of frames in an infinite loop.

  2. Click Start sequence. XCTU sends all frames in the Send frames list. Sent and received frames appear in the Frame logs area.

  3. The process could end by itself, but you can click Stop sequence at any time to halt transmission.
