First of all, sorry if this has come up on the forum before. I ran a search through it, but didn't found anything that solved my problem.
I'm trying to get two Series 1 XBees to communicate. I've set them up as some tutorials around the internet suggested (ladyada's among others) with no luck.
I then found a purdue university manual that explained a bit more on how and what to set up on them, and after I did that I can now get a reply to the ATND command. So now, both Xbees find each other on the same network.
However, even after cycling power through them, I cannot get any communication from one side to the other and vice-versa.
My setup is:
LapTop XBee:
Channel - C
PAN ID - 3137
DH - BB
DL - BB
MY - AAAA
CE - 1
ArduinoXBee
Channel - C
PAN ID - 3137
DH - AA
DL - AA
MY - BBBB
CE - 0
The Baud rates are also matching between the Xbees, Laptop and Arduino.
What am I missing here?
Edit:
After some digging around, I found a comment that said that the DL should match the MY Address. I was assuming that MY = DH + DL. That's not true. So my settings that worked are:
LapTop XBee:
Channel - C
PAN ID - 3137
DH - 0
DL - BBBB
MY - AAAA
CE - 1
ArduinoXBee
Channel - C
PAN ID - 3137
DH - 0
DL - AAAA
MY - BBBB
CE - 0
