Hello,
I setup 2 Xbees : communication is working fine, but within a limited distance : less than 1 meter.
If the 2 Xbees are more than 1 meter away, communication is stopped.
Any clue ?
Thanks for yout help.
Setup is as follow :
- One “receiver”, connected to a USB PC via a XBee Explorer USB (from Sparkfun). The receiver is listen via hyperterminal.
- One “transmitter”, connected to an Arduino Pro Mini - 3.3V/8MHz.
XBee VCC <-> Arduino VCC.
XBee GND <-> Arduino GND.
XBee DOUT <-> Arduino RX (pin 0).
XBee DIN <-> Arduino TX (pin 1).
The following program is uploaded into the Arduino :
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(19200);
}
void loop()
{
Serial.print(‘H’);
delay(1000);
Serial.print(‘L’);
delay(1000);
}
Below is the setup of the receiver :
