Transfering message from one PC to another

XBee & XBee Gateway XBee - Zigbee
1

Hi,

I am looking to transfer message from one PC to another over the ZigBee (Professional Development kit ZNet 2.5). I have one PC connected to my USB interface board and the other one to the Rs-232 interface board. Please help me how to do it or advice if its a better way to do it.

I am a student, apologies for such a basic question.

Thanks

In ZNet 2.5, a coordinator is required to setup the network, so my suggestion would be to load one of the modules with ZNet 2.5 Coordinator AT firmware, and the other with ZNet 2.5 Router/End Device AT firmware. Both need to be on the same PAN ID/channel of course. This would basically give you a “wire replacement”.

Just one note: The USB drivers will be required to interface with the USB dev board. These can be found here (among other places):
