Hi, I am a newbie to XBee modules.
I have just got a pair of XBee PRO modules with two breakout boards (one to connect to PC thru mini USB and other one to connect to Arduino or BS2, I got both.). Here are the links in case any additional information is needed.
XBee Pro 60mW Wire Antenna - http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8742
XBee Explorer USB - http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8687
XBee Explorer Regulated - http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=9132
OK, I managed to connect one of the XBees to my PC with mini USB cable and set its parameters successfully thru X-CTU software.
How do I connect the other XBee to my microcontroller board, say Arduino?
Do I require any more components?
Thanx in advance.
