If your device uses a serial port, CoolTerm should be able to send and receive data messages.Īs you probably hinted, before you can use the app you need to configure the connection by specifying the port number, baud rate, parity and other flow control parameters. This application is designed to help both specialists and enthusiasts who use their computer to control various devices such as GPS receivers and servo controllers. Quick installation, but requires some configuration The program can use the computer serial ports in order to send and receive data. To turn on the pull-up resistor set it as ‘1’, and to turn off set it as ‘0’.CoolTerm is a compact application that allows you to communicate with various devices by sending messages from a terminal. It will help to configure internal 30K pull-up resistor on pins that have been configured as input pins. It will set or read the inactivity time after X-Bee module Automatically exit from command mode. It is options command “Command mode timeout”. It is reset command if we send this command it will Reset configuration to factory settings. It is Address command it will help to enable the pinout modes to be updated from the other X-Bee Radio. The highest value we can pass using this command is 44. The buffer will store the samples, and it can store up to 90 bytes. it will set the number of samples taken from the D I/O pins before X-Bee transmitting them. When are sending this command we have to send sample rate in milli-hex value. This rate is set in milliseconds in hexadecimal notation. It will set the sample rate of the I/O pins. These commands will help in I/O configuration of the pins 10 & 11. These commands will help in I/O configuration from pin0 to pin7. MY ID: it will show X-Bee 16-bit address in the non-hexadecimal form. If we send this command then, X-Bee Radio will drop out of the AT command mode. After configuring we must write it by using this command, otherwise, it cannot save new changes, and will continue with current settings. It will overwrite current configuration with the new configuration. This command will help to write the new changes in X-Bee configuration. Also, we can see the lower and higher part of the Destination address by using DH and DL. We can see and assign new address by sending these commands.

This will help to assign and to show destination address. We can read higher part of the address as well as lower part also by using SH and SL commands. And we can assign new ID also.Įvery X-Bee Radio device has it unique 64-bit address, it cannot be changed. It will help to see present PAN ID in use by the Radio it can be defined between 0X0000 and 0XFFFF. It is used to check communication link exist or not between X-Bee and computer. These pins should be connected to the X-Bee module in the following manner –

The converter cable has four pins – VCC, Ground, RX, and TX.
