Hi, so i’m looking into the possibility of creating a subroutine in arduinoC that configures the parameters of an Xbee S1 module (such as Channel and PANID), I want to do this because i want to automate the process of setting up new Xbee modules introduced to my network rather having to plug them into a pc and configuring them using XCTU.

Is this possible?

Sure. Any setting that can be set in XCTU can be set using the associated AT command and parameter value.
