XBee V2 modules

Posted by SimonK at September 12. 2008

Has anyone got these working yet?

I have V1 versions working fine following all the docs on this site & Aaron Tunwell's profiles, but the new version has some different config options & will not play nicely.

Any ideas?

thanks

Simon

sorry, i've not used the V2s, but i assume the process would be the same, perhaps with some modification of the profiles?

A lot of the internals of the V2 XBee protocol are different, I've discovered after finally taking a moment to look. There are some updates to the V1 stuff that has happened in the last couple of XBee firmwares released by Digi as well (such as 10CD) which add the possibility of sending AT commands to remote nodes, which is super handy! First we'll want to upgrade the Make Controller code to work with the latest series 1 XBee firmwares. This is not too much work. But ultimately we'll want to support both - but only one at a time, since they're not compatible, unfortunately. It blows my mind that they seem to have broken compatibility on those...
