Quickstart Xbee connections

Hi Everyone,

I am designing a wireless Health monitor. I have designed the sensor system on the propeller quick start board using a DS1620 Thermostat and an Memsic 2125 dual axis accelerometer. I have the results on the PST terminal perfectly.

I want to transmit this data wirelessly by Xbee S1 pro series to the base node of another USB adapter. Could anyone suggest me any code to run with the Quickstart .

Thanks,
Naziba

    Once you configure the XBee devices and save the configuration, they should power up looking much the same as a pair of wires. Use PST's StartRxTx method instead of Start and supply the appropriate pin numbers for the XBee transmit and receive pins (not 30/31). You might also add some more delay for the XBee to finish initializing.

    If you want to get fancy, you can configure the XBee from the QuickStart Board using PST to send the commands. The XBee documentation describes what you have to send and how to get the XBee into command mode.
