Getting an error with XBee Lib

Using Arduino Programming Questions
#1

I just downloaded the XBee Library form the arduino libraries page, and copied the folder "XBee" to the libraries folder (I'm using arduino v1). And I tried to upload the Series1_IoSamples example, but Im getting this error:

Series1_IoSamples.cpp:21:27: error: NewSoftSerial.h: No such file or directory Series1_IoSamples.pde:-1: error: 'NewSoftSerial' does not name a type Series1_IoSamples.cpp: In function 'void setup()': Series1_IoSamples.pde:-1: error: 'nss' was not declared in this scope Series1_IoSamples.cpp: In function 'void loop()': Series1_IoSamples.pde:-1: error: 'nss' was not declared in this scope Series1_IoSamples.pde:-1: error: 'nss' was not declared in this scope Series1_IoSamples.pde:-1: error: 'nss' was not declared in this scope

And this error message for Series1_Rx:

Series1_Rx.cpp:25:27: error: NewSoftSerial.h: No such file or directory In file included from Series1_Rx.cpp:24: D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:151: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before 'class' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:322: error: expected class-name before '{' token D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:333: error: expected class-name before '{' token D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:529: error: expected class-name before '{' token D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: error: 'XBeeResponse' has not been declared D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:710: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'XBeeResponse' with no type D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:710: error: expected ';' before '&' token D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:731: error: 'XBeeResponse' does not name a type Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: 'XBeeResponse' does not name a type Series1_Rx.cpp: In function 'void loop()': Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: no matching function for call to 'XBee::getResponse()' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: note: candidates are: void XBee::getResponse(int&) Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: no matching function for call to 'XBee::getResponse()' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: note: candidates are: void XBee::getResponse(int&) Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: no matching function for call to 'XBee::getResponse()' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: note: candidates are: void XBee::getResponse(int&) Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: no matching function for call to 'XBee::getResponse()' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: note: candidates are: void XBee::getResponse(int&) Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: no matching function for call to 'XBee::getResponse()' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: note: candidates are: void XBee::getResponse(int&) Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: no matching function for call to 'XBee::getResponse()' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: note: candidates are: void XBee::getResponse(int&) Series1_Rx.pde:-1: error: no matching function for call to 'XBee::getResponse()' D:\PROJECT\AVR\arduino-1.0\libraries\XBee/XBee.h:705: note: candidates are: void XBee::getResponse(int&)

And this error message for Series1_Rx: Series1_Tx.cpp:21:27: error: NewSoftSerial.h: No such file or directory

I'm using Arduino UNO, Series1 XBee and arduino v1 software Why this lib is not working for me... please help..

Thanx

#2

NewSoftSerial has been replaced by SoftwareSerial in Arduino 1.0, so you need to do the same in the sketch.

#include <NewSoftSerial.h>

becomes:

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

and

NewSoftSerial nss(ssRX, ssTX);

becomes:

SoftwareSerial nss(ssRX, ssTX);
#3

Thanx dxw00d… It works now…

and also, in the example sketch it says “The remote radio must have IR > 0”. What this means?
