WF_SetLinkDownThreshold Function
C
void WF_SetLinkDownThreshold(
    UINT8 threshold
);
Description

When MRF24W is configured as a softAP, it will ping the devices to determine whether devices are alive or dead by transmitting consecutive NULL DATA packets. If device is alive, it will transmit ACK back to softAP. If device is dead, softAP will not receive any packets from device. After PARAM_LINK_DOWN_THRESHOLD is reached, softAP considers the device to be dead. To enable this feature, enable SOFTAP_CHECK_LINK_STATUS. This function is only valid with MRF24WG RF module FW version 0x3107 or the later.

Preconditions

MACInit must be called first. SOFTAP_CHECK_LINK_STATUS must be enabled.

Returns

None.

Remarks

None.
