Functions |
|
EmberStatus | emberInit (void) |
Initialize the radio and the Ember stack.
More...
|
|
void | emberTick (void) |
A periodic tick routine that should be called in the main loop in the application.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberNetworkInit (void) |
Resume the network operation after a reboot.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberStartActiveScan (uint16_t channel) |
Start an active scan.
EMBER_SUCCESS
signals that the scan successfully started. Upon receiving a beacon, the
emberIncomingBeaconHandler()
stack handler is called. At the end of the scanning procedure, the
emberActiveScanCompleteHandler()
stack handler is called. Note that, while a scan can be initiated when the node is currently joined to a network, the node will generally be unable to communicate with its PAN during the scan period. In particular, time-sensitive network operations might be affected because a scan operation will prevent any network operation for the duration of the scan.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberSetActiveScanDuration (uint16_t durationMs) |
Set the time in milliseconds the node will spend listening for incoming beacons during an active scan. The default value is set based on the symbol time of the current PHY configuration according to the 802.15.4 specs.

|
|
uint16_t | emberGetActiveScanDuration (void) |
Get the current active scan duration in milliseconds.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberStartEnergyScan (uint16_t channel, uint8_t samples) |
Start an energy scan.
EMBER_SUCCESS
signals that the scan successfully started. At the end of the scanning procedure, the
emberEnergyScanCompleteHandler()
stack handler is called. Note that, while a scan can be initiated when the node is currently joined to a network, the node is generally unable to communicate with its PAN during the scan period. In particular, time-sensitive network operations might be affected because a scan operation will prevent any network operation for the duration of the scan.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberSetApplicationBeaconPayload (uint8_t payloadLength, uint8_t *payload) |
Allow the application to set the application portion of the beacon payload. It's by default set to the empty string.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberJoinNetworkExtended ( EmberNodeType nodeType, EmberNodeId nodeId, EmberNetworkParameters *parameters) |
Cause the stack to associate with the network using the specified network parameters. It can take several seconds for the stack to associate with the local network. Do not send messages until a call to the
emberStackStatusHandler()
callback informs you that the stack is up. Notice that forming a network causes the node's security frame counter to be reset.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberJoinNetwork ( EmberNodeType nodeType, EmberNetworkParameters *parameters) |
Cause the stack to associate with the network using the specified network parameters. The network ID is assigned by the network coordinator. It can take several seconds for the stack to associate with the local network. Do not send messages until a call to the
emberStackStatusHandler()
callback informs you that the stack is up. Notice that joining a network causes the node's security frame counter to be reset.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberPermitJoining (uint8_t duration) |
Tell the stack to allow other nodes to join the network with this node as their parent. Joining is initially disabled by default. This function may only be called after the node is part of a network and the stack is up.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberJoinCommissioned ( EmberNodeType nodeType, EmberNodeId nodeId, EmberNetworkParameters *parameters) |
Cause the stack to go up with the passed network parameters without performing any over-the-air message exchange. Notice that commissioning a network causes the node's security frame counter to be reset.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberSetSelectiveJoinPayload (uint8_t payloadLength, uint8_t *payload) |
When invoked at a
EMBER_STAR_COORDINATOR
or a
EMBER_STAR_RANGE_EXTENDER
, it causes the stack to only accept subsequent joining nodes with matching joining payload. When invoked at a node that has not yet joined a network, it sets the joining payload that will be included in the joining process. Notice, the join payload is included in a non-standard 802.15.4 command, therefore this feature is not available for nodes operating as
EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE
or
EMBER_MAC_MODE_SLEEPY_DEVICE
.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberClearSelectiveJoinPayload (void) |
Clear the join payload previously set with the
emberSetSelectiveJoinPayload()
API. When invoked at an
EMBER_STAR_COORDINATOR
or an
EMBER_STAR_RANGE_EXTENDER
it causes the stack to accept joining nodes with any join payload pattern. When invoked at a node that has not yet joined a network, it clears the join payload. Subsequent joining attempts will not include any join payload in the over-the-air joining handshake.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberSetAuxiliaryAddressFilteringEntry ( EmberNodeId nodeId, uint8_t entryIndex) |
Set an entry in the auxiliary address filtering table at a given address. Nodes of
EMBER_DIRECT_DEVICE
device type can receive incoming messages destined to any of the node IDs in the auxiliary address filtering table (while also receiving messages destined to actual node ID). If the passed node ID is
EMBER_NULL_NODE_ID
, the entry is cleared.
More...
|
|
EmberNodeId | emberGetAuxiliaryAddressFilteringEntry (uint8_t entryIndex) |
Retrieve the content of the auxiliary address filtering table at a given address. See
emberSetAuxiliaryAddressFilteringEntry()
for details.
More...
|
|
void | emberResetNetworkState (void) |

EMBER_NO_NETWORK
.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberMacFormNetwork ( EmberNetworkParameters *parameters) |
Form a new network as an
EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE
by becoming the coordinator. This API should be used to form a compliant 802.15.4 PAN and to inter-operate with other 802.15.4 devices. Notice that forming a network causes the node's security frame counter to be reset.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberMacSetPanCoordinator (bool isCoordinator) |
Configure a
EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE
node to be a PAN coordinator. Note, this only applies to nodes that have been commissioned as
EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE
.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberNetworkLeave (void) |
Allow a star topology node that previously joined a network to leave the network. The node will notify the parent node and eventually leave the network. The application is notified that the leave procedure completed via the
emberStackStatusHandler()
handler.
More...
|
|
EmberStatus | emberMacAddShortToLongAddressMapping ( EmberNodeId shortId, EmberEUI64 longId) |
Populate the short-to-long address mapping table at the MAC layer. The table is meaningful only when running as
EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE
or
EMBER_MAC_MODE_SLEEPY_DEVICE
. The standard 802.15.4 encryption and authentication process requires the security nonce to be populated with the source node long ID. A receiver must do the same to decrypt a secured incoming message. This short-to-long mapping table is used to decrypt a secured incoming packet from a node using short source addressing. If no entry is found in this table, the incoming message will be dropped. This table is also used to encrypt secured outgoing messages with short source addressing in case the node is sending out a secured message with a short source address other than its own.

◆ emberInit()
EmberStatus emberInit | ( | void |
|
) |
Initialize the radio and the Ember stack.
Device configuration functions must be called before emberInit() is called.
- Note
- The application must check the return value of this function. If the initialization fails, normal messaging functions are not available. Some failure modes are not fatal, but the application must follow certain procedures to permit recovery. Ignoring the return code results in unpredictable radio and API behavior. (In particular, problems with association will occur.)

EmberStatus emberJoinNetwork | ( | EmberNodeType |
nodeType,
|
EmberNetworkParameters * |
parameters
|
||
) |
Cause the stack to associate with the network using the specified network parameters. The network ID is assigned by the network coordinator. It can take several seconds for the stack to associate with the local network. Do not send messages until a call to the emberStackStatusHandler() callback informs you that the stack is up. Notice that joining a network causes the node's security frame counter to be reset.
- Parameters

||
) |
Cause the stack to associate with the network using the specified network parameters. It can take several seconds for the stack to associate with the local network. Do not send messages until a call to the emberStackStatusHandler() callback informs you that the stack is up. Notice that forming a network causes the node's security frame counter to be reset.
- Parameters
-
[in] nodeType
Specification of the role that this node will have in the network. This role can be EMBER_STAR_RANGE_EXTENDER , EMBER_STAR_END_DEVICE , EMBER_STAR_SLEEPY_END_DEVICE , EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE or EMBER_MAC_MODE_SLEEPY_DEVICE . If the node is frequency hopping, the role can not be EMBER_STAR_RANGE_EXTENDER . [in] nodeId
An EmberNodeId value indicating the short ID the node intends to use for addressing purposes. If this value is EMBER_NULL_NODE_ID , the network coordinator will allocate a new short address. Addresses should be allocated by the coordinator unless there is a specific need to join a network with a specific ID. If a specific ID is used, uniqueness should be guaranteed across the entire network by the application, via some out of band means. Notice that nodes of EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE or EMBER_MAC_MODE_SLEEPY_DEVICE require this parameter to be set to EMBER_NULL_NODE_ID . [in] parameters
An EmberNetworkParameters value that specifies the network parameters of the network with which the node should associate.

◆ emberMacAddShortToLongAddressMapping()
EmberStatus emberMacAddShortToLongAddressMapping | ( | EmberNodeId |
shortId,
|
EmberEUI64 |
longId
|
||
) |
Populate the short-to-long address mapping table at the MAC layer. The table is meaningful only when running as EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE or EMBER_MAC_MODE_SLEEPY_DEVICE . The standard 802.15.4 encryption and authentication process requires the security nonce to be populated with the source node long ID. A receiver must do the same to decrypt a secured incoming message. This short-to-long mapping table is used to decrypt a secured incoming packet from a node using short source addressing. If no entry is found in this table, the incoming message will be dropped. This table is also used to encrypt secured outgoing messages with short source addressing in case the node is sending out a secured message with a short source address other than its own.
- Note
- Because the table is stored in RAM, the application should ensure it gets correctly re-populated upon reboot.
- Adding a new entry will cause the removal of existing entries matching the passed short ID or long ID.
- Parameters
-
[in] shortId
The short address of the [short, long] entry to be added to the table. [in] longId
The long address of the [short, long] entry to be added to the table.
- Returns
-
an
EmberStatus
value of:- EMBER_SUCCESS if the mapping was successfully added to the table.
- EMBER_INVALID_CALL if the node is not running as EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE or as EMBER_MAC_MODE_SLEEPY_DEVICE .
- EMBER_TABLE_FULL if the table is currently full.
- EMBER_NO_BUFFERS if the heap does not currently have enough space for the new entry. The size of the table is controlled by the EMBER_SECURITY_SHORT_TO_LONG_MAPPING_TABLE_SIZE .
◆ emberMacClearShortToLongAddressMappings()
EmberStatus emberMacClearShortToLongAddressMappings | ( | void |
|
) |
Clear the short-to-long address mapping table at the MAC layer.

payloadLength,
|
uint8_t * |
payload
|
||
) |
When invoked at a EMBER_STAR_COORDINATOR or a EMBER_STAR_RANGE_EXTENDER , it causes the stack to only accept subsequent joining nodes with matching joining payload. When invoked at a node that has not yet joined a network, it sets the joining payload that will be included in the joining process. Notice, the join payload is included in a non-standard 802.15.4 command, therefore this feature is not available for nodes operating as EMBER_MAC_MODE_DEVICE or EMBER_MAC_MODE_SLEEPY_DEVICE .

◆ emberStartActiveScan()
EmberStatus emberStartActiveScan | ( | uint16_t |
channel
|
) |
Start an active scan. EMBER_SUCCESS signals that the scan successfully started. Upon receiving a beacon, the emberIncomingBeaconHandler() stack handler is called. At the end of the scanning procedure, the emberActiveScanCompleteHandler() stack handler is called. Note that, while a scan can be initiated when the node is currently joined to a network, the node will generally be unable to communicate with its PAN during the scan period. In particular, time-sensitive network operations might be affected because a scan operation will prevent any network operation for the duration of the scan.
Possible error responses and their meanings:
- EMBER_INVALID_CALL , the node is currently frequency hopping.
- EMBER_MAC_SCANNING , indicates an ongoing scan.
- EMBER_PHY_INVALID_CHANNEL , the specified channel is not a valid channel on the current platform.
- Parameters
-
[in] channel
The channel to scan.
◆ emberStartEnergyScan()
EmberStatus emberStartEnergyScan | ( | uint16_t |
channel,
|
uint8_t |
samples
|
||
) |
Start an energy scan. EMBER_SUCCESS signals that the scan successfully started. At the end of the scanning procedure, the emberEnergyScanCompleteHandler() stack handler is called. Note that, while a scan can be initiated when the node is currently joined to a network, the node is generally unable to communicate with its PAN during the scan period. In particular, time-sensitive network operations might be affected because a scan operation will prevent any network operation for the duration of the scan.
Possible error responses and their meanings:
- EMBER_INVALID_CALL , the node is currently frequency hopping.
- EMBER_BAD_ARGUMENT , the samples parameter is invalid.
- EMBER_MAC_SCANNING , indicates an ongoing scan.
- EMBER_PHY_INVALID_CHANNEL , the specified channel is not a valid channel on the current platform.
- EMBER_NO_BUFFERS , the stack doesn't have enough memory at the moment to perform the requested scan.
- Parameters
-
[in] channel
The channel to scan. [in] samples
The number of energy samples to be produced. Each sample is performed averaging the detected energy over X symbols time, whereas X depends on the selected PHY configuration and set by default to 8. The symbol time duration also depends on the selected PHY configuration.
