v1.4.0 - 03/18/2021

  • Deep node discovery for Zigbee, DigiMesh, and 802.15.4.

  • Get route from local XBee to a remote XBee:

    • New method to register a callback to listen for new received routes (add_route_received_callback())
    • New blocking method to ask for the route to the remote node (get_route_to_node())

  • Allow to recover a local node from a profile not only from firmware.

  • Support to be notified when new frames are received from a specific node (add_packet_received_from_callback()).

  • Update network information from sent/received AT Command frames.

  • New optional argument for parameter value in execute_command().

  • New optional argument to apply pending settings in get_parameter(), set_parameter(), and execute_command().

  • XBee 3:

    • Support to update remote file system OTA images.

  • XBee SX 900/868:

    • Firmware update for local and remote XBee devices.
    • Profile update for local and remote XBee devices.

  • XBee S2C:

    • OTA firmware/profile update support for remote nodes.

  • Zigbee:

    • Methods to get nodes routing and neighbor tables: get_routes() and get_neighbors().
    • Methods to get/set many-to-one broadcasting time:
      get_many_to_one_broadcasting_time() and
      set_many_to_one_broadcasting_time().
    • Support for source route creation: create_source_route().
    • New frames:
      • 'Route Record Indicator' (0xA1)
      • 'Create Source Route Packet' (0x21)

  • DigiMesh:

    • Method to get node neighbors: get_neighbors().
    • Method to build aggregate route: build_aggregate_routes().
    • New frames:
      • 'Route Information Packet' (0x8D)

  • Documentation update

  • Bug fixing:

    • Captured possible exception while determining the XBee role (#103)

    • Memory leak: empty list of last discovered nodes using ND (#172)

    • Fix Python 3.9 syntax error (#204)

    • Use least significant nibble of status field in local/remote AT Command Responses (XCTUNG-376)

    • Do not lose already registered socket callbacks when closing a local XBee.

    • Reload node information after firmware/profile update (XBPL-348)

    • OTA firmware update:

      • Fix sequence number in ZCL responses during fw update (XCTUNG-1975)
      • Immediate update after transferring the OTA file (XBPL-350)
      • Use requested file offset and size instead of fixed chunks (XBPL-344)
      • Mechanism to calculate the proper block size based on the maximum size received by the client and the maximum payload size (XBPL-346)
      • For asyncronous sleeping nodes (Zigbee, DigiMesh, 802.15.4) and synchronous sleeping networks (DigiMesh), configure a minimum sleep time before update and restore settings at the end.
        For DigiMesh synchronous sleeping network, the local XBee must be a non-sleeping node but synchronized with the network (SM=7)

    • Profile application:

      • Do not uncompress profile when reading its information. This change avoids extra processing time and required space when retrieving profile info.
      • Remove profile extracted files. A profile is opened to access to its contents, and must be closed when done with it.
      • Fixed the application of XBee profiles with 'AP' setting changes (XBPL-340)
      • Fixed bootloader update from profile due to bootloader image path mismatch (XBPL-338)
      • Fix bootloader update operation by waiting some time until the new bootloader is running (XBPL-339)
      • Fixed application of profile with filesystem from Windows(XBPL-341)
      • Read firmware version as an hexadecimal value (#177)

    • Several minor bug fixes.
