Changing the XBee Firmware Versions using XCTU
These modules can be configured for an RF data rate of 80 Kbps or 10 Kbps with a simple
firmware change. You can send information at a lower data rate to improve your receiver
sensitivity which increases range.
1. Click the
Modem Configuration
tab in XCTU.
2. Select the modem type from the Modem drop-down menu that corresponds with the RF data
rate desired: XB8-DM for the 80 Kbps version or XB8-DP for the 10 Kbps version. The function
set auto-populates with the version associated with the selected modem type.
CAUTION!
DigiMesh is not available at the 10K data rate.
