Error: There are not remote devices discovered for the selected local device

The local device you have selected has no remote devices. Click the Discover remote devices button and XCTU will discover devices on the local device's network.

There are no remote devices to select

If there are no remote XBee modules to select in the Radio Range Test dialog, try one of the following resolutions.

Check cables

The USB cables should be firmly and fully attached to both the computer and the XBee development board. When attached correctly, the association LED on the adapter is lit.

Check that the XBee module is fully seated in the XBee Grove Development Board

When the XBee module is correctly installed, it is pushed fully into the board and no air or metal is visible between the plastic of the adapter socket and the XBee module headers. Also, check that all ten pins on each side of the XBee module are in a matching hole in the socket.

Check the XBee module orientation

The angled "nose" of the XBee module should match the lines on the silk screening of the board and point away from the USB socket on the XBee Grove Development board.

Check that the XBee modules are in the same network

Check that the Network ID (ID), Preamble ID (HP), and Channel Mask (CM) settings have the same value for both XBee modules.

Restore default settings

If the XBee modules are properly connected and in the same network, restore default settings and configure them again.

The local RSSI and the number of packets received are always 0

Remote RSSI is not included in the chart and the Remote RSSI control is disabled

The local device (the one attached to your computer) can be configured to use API or transparent mode. The remote device RSSI value can only be read when the local XBee is working in API mode.

To display the remote RSSI value, reconfigure the local module to work in API mode.
