I have to transmit the GPS data to pc wirelessly through Xbee S2 and that GPS module works at 4800 baud rate.I have used Xbee at baud rate of 9600 only.Once I have tried to change it to 19200 and it damaged my Xbee module.So I am scared to change the Xbee configuration to 4800. How can I use my Xbee module to transmit the data of GPS device that works in 4800 of baud rate?.Can I change it to 4800? or is there any other way of changing the baud rate? any help would be appreciated. Thanks !! :)
You can change the baud rate of the serial interface of an XBee module by setting the ATBD parameter. X-CTU has a table showing some of the values, where 2 corresponds to 4800 baud. On many of the XBee modules, you can also use the actual baud rate (so ATBD4800 to set it to 4800 baud).
The XBee sends data over the radio at a fixed baud rate, and XBee devices on a network can have different baud rates on their serial interfaces.

I've tried to interface PIC16F877A with SIM800l V2.2 in order to send sensor data from the microcontroller. While connecting SIM800L with proteus using TTL connection all the data are sent through GSM as we expected. But while we upload the code to the PIC16F877A, there is no response from the GSM module. I've also checked the baud rate, Tx and Rx configuration, changed the PIC16F877A but we can't obtain the results. I also changed the GSM module to SIM900A but still it's not working. Is there anyone who can help me with this issue please.enter image description here
What are the possible ways of setting custom baud rates for serial ports in Linux user mode and kernel mode?
I see TCGETS2/TCSETS2 ioctl calls to achieve this. Is it possible to set custom baud rates without any special ioctls?
i have a portable device that consist of
arduino leonardo board,xbee series 2 as router( AT mode ) and different sensors.This portable device acts as a remote device and can be used upon power up.
The other side, i have a host controller that consist of arduino uno board, arduinoxbee shield v1.1, and xbee series 2 as coordinator( AT mode ). This host controller is plug through USB into my PC.
The aim of my project is to send the sensor data from the portable device using xbee wirelessly over to my host controller and displaying out on the arduino serial monitor.
I've managed to configured the two xbees. But now, i'm unsure of how im going to transmit and receive the data. I need a transmitter and receiver program for both xbees that is connected to the arduino. Anyone can help please?
There are a couple different options for how you can do this, but the simplest is to set up your sensor XBee either in change detect (IC) mode, or set a sample rate (IR). In either case you'll need to handle the RX Indicator frame at the controller, which will contain the sampled data.
I wrote a C# stack that can configure all this, but for what you're trying to do it would probably only be useful as a reference (https://github.com/jefffhaynes/XBee).
I have a bunch of equipment that communicate with each other using xbee series 1 radios. I'd like to read that traffic from this network on my computer (which has an xbee hooked to it's USB port). Using XCTU, I can read the traffic for a particular xbee in the network by setting MY in my computer's xbee to the MY of the particular xbee. But what I'd really like to do is read traffic from all of the xbees. How would I configure my xbee to do that? Thanks!
You need to get an 802.15.4 packet sniffer to monitor the 802.15.4 network traffic. It isn't possible to sniff traffic with the XBee module itself.
If you're on a budget, various manufacturers have free software that works with their 802.15.4 dongles. For example, Texas Instruments has sniffer software that works with a $49 USB dongle.
I just bought an XBee Wi-Fi S6B. (I was expecting it to be similar to the WiFly that can easily post sampled I/O data to a webpage.) I am going to hook two temperature sensors to the analog inputs. Note - there are no Arduinos in this project.
I have configured the XBee to send UDP packets to my computer on port 3054 (0xBEE) - I can see them using Netcat.
My question: Is there any existing software out there for Linux or the Raspberry Pi that can receive these packets and decode them? I'd rather not have to re-invent the wheel. I've searched extensively, but everything I found was for API mode with an arduino attached. I'm interested in just running the XBee with the two temperature sensors.
Many of the search results I've seen are for talking to another XBee connected to my computer via a serial port. I'd rather not buy an extra XBee, because my computer is already on the same network.
Here's a small program I just created to listen for XBEE UDP packets. It listens currently for one temperature sensor, but is easily configurable to add on other sensors.
