afAddr64Bit is for MAC/IEEE address of Zigbee device and afAddr16Bit is the short address of Zigbee device which is assigned by Zigbee network. You cannot use PAN ID to send data to particular network COORDINATOR.

You have to join the network form by a specific coordinator then you can start to send message to coordinator. In every Zigbee network, short address of coordinator is fixed to 0x0000.
