Example: Send serial data from an XBee node to XBee Industrial Gateway
The following example assumes the microcontroller attached to the XBee device is a computer.
To send a serial data package from an XBee node on your network to XBee Industrial Gateway and
verify that it has been automatically uploaded to Remote Manager:
1. Attach one XBee node from your network to an XBIB device and connect it to your computer
using a serial or USB cable. This is the node that will send the serial data to XBee Industrial
Gateway.
2. Open XCTU. Add the XBee node that is connected to your computer to the list of radio modules.
3. Once XCTU has started and your XBee node is added to the list, select the node and click the
Consoles working mode
tab. The Console log window appears and displays the XBee
node’s serial console.
4. Connect the console.
5. Depending on the working mode (API or AT) of the XBee device, choose one of the following
