6. HARDWARE

This section shows the example of using SHIELD-XBEE with Arduino UNO and Arduino

Mega as the main controller. However, other Arduino main board such as Arduino

Duemilanove can also be used.

Figure below shows that the SHIELD-XBEE is stacked on the Arduino UNO. Please ensure

that the pins alignment is correct.
