I am wanting to use the Mobile XBee App which relies on Bluetooth. The product page by Rob Faludi states that the Mobile App will work with Digi XBee3 DigiMesh® 2.4.

Bluetooth is available in XBee3 802.15.4 Function set and XBee3 Zigbee function set but not in DigiMesh 2.4. There is no BT field, am I missing something?

Thank you very much,  
Chad

Chad,

At the moment, blue tooth is not enabled on the Digi mesh code. That has been the result of a function needed in the stack that hopefully will be there on the next release of the code due out in April.

mvut,

I also want to use bluetooth with the mesh firmware…  
Will you be able to release the new firmware with mesh this month?

Thank you in advance for your answer,

Bastien
