Explicit Addressing frames

XBee devices support communication between Zigbee application objects running on the same node
or among objects running on different nodes in a network.
This wireless data transmission is only possible if the modules are working in API operating mode and
use the frames that include application addressing (endpoints, cluster ID, profile ID):

Explicit Addressing Command frame

The Explicit Addressing Command (0x11) frame allows Zigbee application layer fields (endpoint, profile,
and cluster ID) to be specified for a wireless data transmission.
In other words, an Explicit Addressing frame causes the module to send data wirelessly to the
specified remote node, and to its proper application object specified by the destination endpoint,
cluster ID, and profile ID. These frames allow you to send Zigbee Device Profile (ZDP), Zigbee Cluster
Library (ZCL), and application profile commands to devices in the network.
This frame type includes specific fields for:
Node addressing: 64-bit and 16-bit destination address.
n
Service addressing: Source and destination endpoints, cluster ID, and profile ID.

ZDP, ZCL, or application profile command in its data payload.

Identifies the data frame for the host to correlate with a subsequent Transmit
Status (0x8B) frame.
Setting Frame ID to '0' disables the response frame.
