XBee network OTA firmware updates

The XBee Gateway firmware supports an OTA (Over the Air) firmware update in the XBee network nodes. As XBee networks can involve a large number of nodes, Digi provides a way to automatically schedule XBee Gateway firmware updates and manage firmware files.

OTA firmware update files are available for downloading from the Digi Support site. Go to the firmware update page for the type of XBee ZigBee modules that you want to update.

• XBee modules prior to XBee 3: The firmware files will have the .ebl extension.
• XBee 3 modules: The firmware files may have an .ota or .otb extension.

Note XBee 3 Zigbee OTA updates (firmware and filesystem) are supported only on XBee Gateway firmware 3.2.30.9 and newer.
