• The mote listens for advertisement messages sent by the

   or

  s already in the network.
• Once it hears such an advertisement, in synchronizes to the network, and starts the joining process with the

  . Note that this can be done even when the

   is multiple hops away from the joining

• Once the joining process is finished, the

   is Operational. It has been assigned some "base bandwidth" from the

• Configure the network identifier of the mote. This parameter is stored in non-volatile memory, so your application does not need to do this step every time this the device boots. In particular, during development, you can set the network identifier through the mset netid CLI command, and reboot the part.
• Optionally, configure the join duty cycle of the mote to the appropriate trade-off point between joining speed and average power consumption during the searching process.
• Ask the 

  Include Page
  _def_smip _def_smip

   stack to search for a network and join, by calling the dnm_loc_joinCmd() function.
• Monitor the events received from the the 

  Include Page
  _def_smip _def_smip

   stack. The mote is joined when your application receives the DN_API_LOC_EV_OPERATIONAL event.
