Can I name my XBee devices?

MJHanagan

I have two XBee modules and an X-Stick so it would be nice to see them as "XBee 1", XBee 2" and "X-Stick" instead of their MAC address "0013A20040ABC4A4", etc. In the XCTU software I see a field labeled "Name:" but it is empty and I don't see anything in the configuration section. Can this be written to, if so how?

Yes, you can set this field in X-CTU as follows:

As you can see from my screenshot you want to set the "Node Identifier" field. This will then populate the name field for the module. I hope this helps.
