Maximum Transmit Retries - Address = 0x52; NV Address = 0x07
regMAXTXRETRY sets the number of transmission retries if an
acknowledgement is not received. If an acknowledgement is not received
after the last retry, EX_NORFACK is raised. Figure 38 shows examples of
the command.
The time between retries depends on the current baud rate. Figure 39
shows the time between retries based on baud rate. The retry number
times the timeout times gives the potential latency before a new message
can be sent.

When a byte is received from the UART, the module starts a timer that
counts down every millisecond. The timer is restarted when each byte is
received. The value for the regTXTO register is the number of milliseconds
to wait before transmitting the data in the UART receive buffer. The default
setting for this register is 0x10 (~16ms delay).
If the timer reaches zero before the next byte is received from the UART,
the module begins transmitting the data in the buffer. This timeout value
should be greater than one byte time at the current UART data rate with a
minimum of 0x02. It should not be set to a value of 0x01 or any value less
than one byte time as unpredictable results could occur.
If the timeout value is set to 0x00, the transmit wait timeout is deactivated.
In this case, the transceiver waits until a number of bytes equal to the
Minimum Transmission Unit (MTU) have been received by the UART. All
of the bytes are sent once the MTU has been reached. Figure 36 shows
examples of the commands. Figure 37 shows the minimum timeout values
based on baud rate.
