Hi All, Hi Piergiorgio, I have an interpretation question regarding the exit condition from SEND_BEACON. Specifically the interoperation between SEND_BEACON and SYNCING. Let’s assume there is a large delay between feeding tx_cmd = BEACON until it is received back as rx_cmd. Let’s also assume local_nodeID=0 is in SEND_BEACON state and BEACON_TIMER has expired. So the BEACON was transmitted,
but is not yet received back. That would mean that the SYNCING state is entered with rx_cmd!=BEACON (because it is not there yet), so SYNCING is more or less skipped. Is this an issue because the beacon will confuse the PHY and force it into EARLY_RECEIVE
and eventually RECOVER? I think what is intended is that you enter SYNCING, while still receiving the BEACON and hence consuming it in the SYNCING state.
