Yes, exactly right. The :00 must be included.
Also there must be the same (even) number of digits as other endpoints
use so if you were using a range of say 1000 endpoints which would
require 4 hex digits, your main application address would be
FF.FE0101:0000. If you have no endpoints then :00 is appropriate.

<div>The UID is not managed currently in this
way. Â
It is left to the installer to ensure that no
duplicate UID's exist on any one network. Â In xAP
V1.3 we do have much larger address space and we did
talk about allocating 'reserved' ranges of UID's to
vendors rather like MAC addresses but currently
it's not being used. So use what you want - but
make it configurable by the installer. You should
not use all 0's or all FF's.<br>
<br>
In your example that '-' should be a '.'<br>
<br>
Yes the device, instance and endpoint can be as you
wish, we try and recommend you keep endpoints
consecutive but that is not always possible. The
'0' endpoint refers to the whole application/device
(not a specific endpoint) and an all FF's endpoint
is reserved so should not be
used.    Endpoints
should persist their numerical UIDÂ ie not shuffle
around each time the device is restarted for
example. Having endpoints come and go is allowable
,just not changing their UID's<br>
