Listen Before Talk requirement
The XBee/XBee-PRO S2C 802.15.4 RF Module must be configured to comply with the Listen Before Talk
(LBT) requirements in the EN 300 328 standard. This can be accomplished by one of the following
options:
1. Set the PL command to 3 (6 dBm) or lower, which ensures that the maximum transmitter
power is under the limit at which LBT is required.
or
2. Set the CA command as described in CA (CCA Threshold) to enable LBT at the required noise
threshold level.
