Optional steps
You can review the information in these steps for more XBee connection examples and examples of
how to use MicroPython.
1. Review additional connection examples to help you learn how to use the device. See
2. Review introductory MicroPython examples. You can use MicroPython to enhance the
intelligence of the XBee to enable you to do edge-computing by adding business logic in
MicroPython, rather than using external components.
