Ping/pong message between nodes

Syntax

echo <message>

Example 1

echo

Example 2

echo "hello world"

Tx 1 Rx 1 'hello world'

Tx 2

The

echo

command is used to initiate a ping-pong test between two

nodes. Prior to issuing the

echo

command on both nodes, use the

dst

console command to specify the ZAURA RF Wireless nodes address of
the peer device.

On the first node, enter the

echo

command without any parameters to

configure the node as the initial responder (pong). On the second device,
issue the

echo

command and supply an arbitrary <message> to transmit

to the peer (ping). If the remote receives the <message>, it will echo it
back to the transmitter. Upon receipt of the echo, the transmitter echoes it
back to the remote device. This process continues until the packet is lost
(one side will show a

Tx

message but not an

Rx

message) or a key is

pressed in the terminal program to exit the test.
