Hello,
I'm developing a sensor network project to agriculture. I'm using Arduino UNO boards and XBee S2C communications. The XBee are communicating between them, as I can see in XCTU software, but I can't communicate XBee's with Arduinos. They are configured with the same Pan ID and API 2 mode.
I'm using the xbee-arduino library, and I'm trying to run the example for the Series 2 XBee. The Tx node (Router or End Device) blinks twice the builtin led, which tells me that the local XBee is not providing a response, as you can see in the example code below.
I'm using an Arduino Wireless SD shield and I've tried connecting the XBee direct to de Arduino getting the same result.
That is the example code:

This example is for Series 2 XBee

// create the XBee object
XBee xbee = XBee();

pinMode(errorLed, OUTPUT);
Serial.begin(9600);
xbee.setSerial(Serial);
flashLed(statusLed, 5, 50);
}
void loop() {
// break down 10-bit reading into two bytes and place in payload
pin5 = 25;
payload[0] = pin5 >> 8 & 0xff;
payload[1] = pin5 & 0xff;
xbee.send(zbTx);
// flash TX indicator
flashLed(statusLed, 1, 100);
// after sending a tx request, we expect a status response
// wait up to half second for the status response
if (xbee.readPacket(500)) {
// got a response!
// should be a znet tx status
if (xbee.getResponse().getApiId() == ZB_TX_STATUS_RESPONSE) {
xbee.getResponse().getZBTxStatusResponse(txStatus);
// get the delivery status, the fifth byte
if (txStatus.getDeliveryStatus() == SUCCESS) {
// success. time to celebrate
flashLed(statusLed, 5, 50);
} else {
// the remote XBee did not receive our packet. is it powered on?
flashLed(errorLed, 3, 500);
}
}
} else if (xbee.getResponse().isError()) {
//nss.print("Error reading packet. Error code: ");
//nss.println(xbee.getResponse().getErrorCode());
} else {
// local XBee did not provide a timely TX Status Response -- should not happen
flashLed(errorLed, 2, 50);
}
delay(1000);
}
Hope you help me! and sorry about my English. Thanks!
