class digi.xbee.models.address.XBee16BitAddress(address)[source]

Bases: object

This class represent a 16-bit network address.

This address is only applicable for:

  1. 802.15.4

  2. Zigbee

  3. ZNet 2.5

  4. XTend (Legacy)

DigiMesh and Point-to-multipoint does not support 16-bit addressing.

Each device has its own 16-bit address which is unique in the network. It is automatically assigned when the radio joins the network for Zigbee and Znet 2.5, and manually configured in 802.15.4 radios.

Attributes:
COORDINATOR_ADDRESS (XBee16BitAddress): 16-bit address reserved for the coordinator.
BROADCAST_ADDRESS (XBee16BitAddress): 16-bit broadcast address.
UNKNOWN_ADDRESS (XBee16BitAddress): 16-bit unknown address.
PATTERN (String): Pattern for the 16-bit address string: (0[xX])?[0-9a-fA-F]{1,4}

Class constructor. Instantiates a new XBee16BitAddress object with the provided parameters.
