The Digi XBee Mobile application contains configuration parameters for some specific functionality. Follow these steps to configure them:

  1. Click the Options button located at the top-right corner of the application.

  2. Select the Application preferences option. The Application preferences page displays.

  3. Settings are split in categories. Configure the desired ones:

    • Firmware update preferences: Lists the firmware update preferences of the application.

      • Download additional firmware from FTP at startup: Digi XBee Mobile downloads firmware definition files on demand when connecting to XBee devices. However, this setting allows you to configure an FTP server path to download extra firmware definition files at application startup. To use this feature, enable the setting and fill in the input text with the path to the folder of the FTP server that contains the firmware configuration files in XML format.

        For example, if you have an FTP server that contains a non-official firmware configuration (XML) file in /firmwares_to_test and your server name is ftp.test.com, introduce the following text into the field: ftp://ftp.test.com/firmwares_to_test/. The application will download all the firmware configuration files contained there.

        The additional FTP server must allow for anonymous access. This means that the user must be anonymous and the password must be empty.

  4. Tap Save when finished to save the new values.
