Xbee Manual Configuration
Is it possible to manually reconfigure an Xbee pro RF module with BASIC code? What I would like to do is have one module as the transmitter and up to 6 modules as receivers. I need to communicate with the 6 receivers indepentently. I will be using them in the field without a PC and X-tcu software. My thought is to use the I/O pins of the transmitter module to trigger a GOSUB routine and have code change the channel or PAN number stored in the transmitter to match the receiver. Any ideas? Thx

The XBee datasheet lists the AT commands. You send "+++" to the XBee to put it in command mode (I don't remember what the mode is called) and then you send your AT commands.
I've done this with the Prop several times.
One thing to remember. While you end most AT commands with a carriage return, make sure you don't use one after "+++" or the XBee wont enter command mode.
