Packet Redundancy Mode
Serial Packet Redundancy mode must match (Single Packet
mode vs. Packet Repeat mode). This is because a transceiver,
when in Packet Repeat mode, sends 12 extra characters
(sequence numbers, etc.) to control the delivery of the
repeated data. Misconfigurations can result in undesired
operation.

will be sent over the air as quickly as possible, but the
receiver will buffer the data until enough bytes have arrived
to cover worst case gaps in transmission. The delay intro-
duced by data buffering may range from 22 to 44 ms, but the
radio will not create any gaps in the output data stream. This
mode of operation is required for protocols such as MOD-
BUS™ that do not allow gaps in their data transmission.
