Xbee pro series 2

Hi all,

I recently purchased an xbee series2 developement kit from digi. I am simple trying to turn on an LED on an end device by sending in an AT command in the form of an API packet.The situation I’m in now is:

(XBIB-U) board as the co-ordinator
(XBIB-R) board as the end device
X-CTU software

I have a basic network setup with 1 co-ordinator and 1 end device. I am trying to send an AT command in the form of an API packet from the co-ordinator to the end device. The AT command is just a simple assertion of DIO4 to a logic low (“ATD4 4”). This will turn on LED 3 on the end device or it should anyway.
The packet I assembled which is a remote AT command request and tried to send is as follows:

7E 00 10 17 50 00 13 A2 00 40 52 C7 1A 92 F4 02 44 34 34 3C

I followed the structure of the “Remote AT command request” API frame type that is in the manual. Also I need to setup the end device to be able to receive and decode the incoming packet. Can you tell me how I can do this? I believe I need to install the API firmware of the x-ctu? I tried this but it didn’t work.

“write parameters…failed” was the message I got at the bottom of the modem configuration tab.

Many Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,

Have you tried contacting digi directly for support? This would probably be the best course of action at this time.

Sorry we can’t be of more help.
