Factory Reset of XBee-PRO SX Module

XBee & XBee Gateway
1

I am working on an embedded system where we’d like to be able to perform a factory reset on our XBee-PRO SX module. We would like to be able to do this if we have lost the ability to communicate over the UART, such as if the BAUD rate has become corrupted.

Is there a way to do this? How?

Thanks,

Chris

The ability to restore a module to factory defaults is the same on ALL XBee modules. You hold the DI low and reset the module. This forces you into command mode at 9600 baud. From there, you can issue an ATRE, WR, CN to Restore to defaults, Write to Flash and Exit command mode.
