Step 4: Update the firmware
Click on the “Modem
Configuration” tab and
then click on the
“Download new
versions…” button to
download all of the
updated firmwares.
After the firmware
downloads have
completed, click on the
“Read” button. The
window will display all
of the current settings of
the attached XBee.
Select “ZNet 2.5
Router/End Device AT”
as the firmware in the
pull-down menu.
Change the “Node
Identifier” to something
like “router1”. You may
want to change the
“PAN ID” to a unique
number if you plan to
use your XBee in a
place where others will
be using their own
XBees.
Check the box that says
“Always update
firmware” and click the “Write” button. The X-CTU software may ask you to push the reset
button during the firmware upgrade process.
