| Open the the Coordinator that is still open in XCTU and upload the sketch to the Arduino.(Note: On the Xbee shield there is a switch that has two sides, UART and DLINE. When you upload the sketch to the Arduino the switch needs to be on DLINE or else it won't upload. Switch it back to UART after the sketch uploads);\\ | Open the the Coordinator that is still open in XCTU and upload the sketch to the Arduino.(Note: On the Xbee shield there is a switch that has two sides, UART and DLINE.
