How does the XBee Industrial Gateway Python application work?
XBee Industrial Gateway and XBee Industrial Gateway Python application software combination acts
as a bridge between your XBee network and Remote Manager. This means that using the capabilities
provided by Remote Manager, you can communicate with and manage not just XBee Industrial
Gateway, but also all the XBee modules of the network individually. Similarly, all the XBee modules can
report data to Remote Manager and store the data there to be retrieved later.
Consumer applications, such as web apps, mobile apps, and so on, can use Remote Manager web
services to retrieve data stored by the XBee modules and represent it in different ways, or talk
directly with any of the XBee modules to configure them, activate Digital Input/Output (DIO) lines, etc.
The following figure illustrates the role of XBee Industrial Gateway and XBee Industrial Gateway
Python application in such a scenario.
