Leave a network
The following mechanisms cause the coordinator to leave its current PAN and start a new network
based on its network formation parameter values.
n Change the ID command such that the current 64-bit PAN ID is invalid.
n Change the SC command such that the current channel (CH) is not included in the channel
mask.
n Change the ZS or any of the security command values.
n Issue the NR0 command to cause the coordinator to leave.
n Issue the NR1 command to send a broadcast transmission, causing all devices in the network
to leave and migrate to a different channel.
n Press the commissioning button four times or issue the CB command with a parameter of 4.
This restores the device to a default configuration state.
n Issue a network ZDO leave command.
Note Changes to ID, SC, ZS, and security command values only take effect when changes are applied
(AC or CN commands).
Replace a coordinator (security disabled only)
On rare occasions, it may become necessary to replace an existing coordinator in a network with a
new physical device. If security is not enabled in the network, you can configure a replacement XBee
coordinator with the PAN ID (16-bit and 64-bit), channel, and stack profile settings of a running
network in order to replace an existing coordinator.
Note Avoid having two coordinators on the same channel, stack profile, and PAN ID (16-bit and 64-bit)
as it can cause problems in the network. When replacing a coordinator, turn off the old coordinator
before starting the new coordinator.
To replace a coordinator, read the following commands from a device on the network:
Command Description
OP Read the operating 64-bit PAN ID.
OI Read the operating 16-bit PAN ID.
CH Read the operating channel.
ZS Read the stack profile.
Each of the commands listed above can be read from any device on the network. These parameters
will be the same on all devices in the network. After reading the commands from a device on the
network, program the parameter values into the new coordinator using the following commands.
Command Description
ID Set the 64-bit PAN ID to match the read OP value.
