Connect the XBee nodes to XBee Gateway. This step involves configuring the parameters for forming XBee networks on both XBee Gateway and XBee nodes. There are three substeps:
- Configure XBee Gateway as a coordinator.
- Join XBee nodes to the coordinator.
- Verify that the XBee nodes are joined to the coordinator.
See Connect the XBee nodes to XBee Gateway for more information.
- Configure XBee ZigBee network addressing settings. See Configure the ZigBee network addressing parameters for XBee nodes for more information.
- Explore configuring XBee nodes for input/output.
- If using serial I/O, configure XBee nodes for serial I/O. See Explore serial I/O for more information.
- If using digital or analog I/O, configure the XBee nodes for digital or analog I/O. See Explore digital and analog I/O for more information.
- Look at your device data on Remote Manager. See View your device data for more information.
