This is an old revision of the document!
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

Notes:
Upload Sending Code to Router/Sending XBee (Change to Relay Address)
- Put Xbee on Xbee shield/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
LED on XBee should be on; not blinking?
