XBee stop to comunicate after baud rate change

I hope someone can help me.

I’m using two XBee Series 2 with this configuration:

  1. ZNET 2.5 COORDINATOR API (1147)
  2. ZNET 2.5 ROUTER/END DEVICE AT (1247)

The first XBee is connected to an Arduino board and I’m able to switch a remote pin.

All works perfectly with the default baud rate of 9600, but now I need to change the baud rate to 4800, because I have to send also some GPS serial data.

I have changed the baud rate to 4800 in both XBee with X-CTU, and I edited my arduino code setting:


#include 

XBee xbee = XBee();

void setup()
{
   Serial.begin(4800);
   xbee.begin(4800);
}

Unfortunately now the the XBee can’t comunicate each other, the assoc led blink and the RSSI led remain off, and the remote pin don’t switch.

What I have to do to make them work with baud rate of 4800?

Try upgrading the firmware on your radios to the supported ZB function sets and firmware versions. The Znet 2.5 code is now 3 to 4 years old and no longer supported by anyone.
