Hello! How can I get the energy of everychannel in a Xbee Series 1? I know there is a command to set a range to scan the energy of every channel, but I want to get the values of the energy scanned in every channel. Is this posible? How? Thank you!! ---

Yes it is done using the SC and ED commands (Page 43 in the manual). ---

All ports are group 1 and port 1 is connected with a smartcard reader. The smartcardreader / usb stick works and can be connected.??? Ali ---

Ali I am not sure I understand your question. Can you rephrase it?
