**=== Using the XCTU Program: ===** - Make sure everything is connected: wires, code is correct - Make sure all Xbees recognize one another (close the plug(+) - Make sure coordinator receives packets so you know that relay and sending Xbee works - XCTU Program *Tools -> range test *Select remote radio device: relay Xbee *Can choose how many packets to send (usually 15) *Start Range Test after https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/digidocs/pdfs/90001526.pdf **Notes:** Upload Sending Code to Router/Sending XBee (Change to Relay Address) - Put Xbee on Xbee shield and arduino - Set shield to "Dline" - When done uploading code, set back to "UART" Upload Relay Code to ATmega 328P (Change to Coordinator Address) - Use FTDI, connect wires to corresponding pinouts on ATMega barebumblebee * RTS - Reset * RX - TX * TX - RX * VCC - Power rail * CTS unplugged * GND to Ground - Power supply should only be FTDI (unplug battery) - Arduino Setting (tools) * Board: Arduino/Genuino Uno * Port: (Select) * Programmer: "Arduino as ISP" {for bootloading} or "AVRISP mkll" {for uploading code Note: Make sure FTDI's DTR is connected to the capacitor not Pin 1 of ATmega328p. LED on XBee should be on; not blinking? **=== Range Testing w/ PCBs ===** * Connect solar charging chip and relay xbee onto the PCB board (we used v4.0) * Connect battery into the solar charging chip (Batt) * Plug coordinator into computer * Open XCTU program and click discover devices * Select all ports and then click 'next' * Dont change anything from "set port parameters" window; click 'Finish' * Make sure coordinator is found; Mac Address: 0013A20041287FF9 {{ :weatherbox:bumblebee:screen_shot_2021-03-07_at_11.27.21_am.png?400 |}} * Click on select all device and then add select device * Looking at the "Radio Module" side, looking at coordinator, click on discover remote devices * Make sure Relay Xbee is identified; select all and then click select devices {{ :weatherbox:bumblebee:screen_shot_2021-03-07_at_11.34.21_am.png?400 |}} * Click on tools icon and select 'range testing' * Click 'select local device": should say something like zigbee * Make sure remote selection says ...FFB (Relay xbee) * Change number of packets to 15 * Start Range Testing! {{ :weatherbox:bumblebee:screen_shot_2021-03-07_at_11.36.11_am.png?400 |}}
