The Telegesis ETRX351 and ETRX357 modules are low power
2.4GHz Zigbee modules, based on the latest Ember EM351 and
EM357 single chip ZigbeeTM solutions.
These 3rd generation modules have been designed to be
integrated into any device without the need for RF experience
and expertise. Utilizing the EmberZNet Zigbee stack, the
ETRX35x enables you to add powerful wireless networking
capability to your products and quickly bring them to market.
The module’s unique AT-style command line interface allows
designers to quickly integrate Zigbee technology without
complex software engineering. For custom application
development the ETRX35x series integrates with ease into
Ember’s InSight development environment.

Example AT-Style Commands
AT+BCAST Send a Broadcast
AT+UCAST:<address> Send a Unicast
AT+EN Establish PAN network
AT+JN Join PAN
At power-up the last configuration is loaded from non-volatile
S-Registers, which can eliminate the need for an additional
host controller.
