Hi,
I’m a student in a electronics engineering class and on working on a project where we have two XBee S2 of the series XB24-Z7CIT-004 revG.
What we are trying to do is:
One of the Xbees will work as a master which has a switch connected to one DIO like DIO0 on pin20 and the switch is supplied with 3.3V. [ 3.3v –> switch –> pin20 ]
And the slave Xbee(remote) is connected to a PIC18.
So when we push on the switch, the master xbee should send a signal to the slave xbee who sends out a digital high to PIC18.
We have been experimenting with different firmwares of XB24-B ZNet 2.5 …coordinator/router/end device/ etc. But with no luck.
We have found a lot of examples with the Xbee Series 1 but nothing with Series 2 on the Internet.
*We have been working with this for 2 weeks now with no luck…
So it’s simple:
3.3v –> switch –> pin20 *DIO0 (master xbee) – – –> (slave xbee) *DIO0 pin20 –> PIC18 port(RB5)
Our present firmware config on the xbees are:
*our PAN 234 and DL and DH is right, cause we can communicate through UART to our PIC18.
Xbee master:
ZNet 2.5 Coordinator AT 1047
DIO0 - 3 DI (Digital Input)
IR - 0 (IO Sampling)
IC - FF (Digital IO Change Detection)
Xbee slave:
ZNet 2.5 Router/End Device AT 1247
DIO0 - 4 DO Low (Digital output, default low *0V)
IR - 0
IC - -
Were are we doing it wrong?
Can someone here help us?
Thanks in advance!
