Hello,
I've some troubles while running a simple test with my Arduino Uno and a XBee shield with a XBee from Digi. I also have the same XBee antenna on a XBee Explorer USB connected to my MacBook.
This is what I want to do:
- Run the "Physical Pixel" code on my Arduino.
- Switch the LED on/off remotely from my MacBook using the XBee Explorer.
But I can't get it to work... The two XBee's aren't communicating at all I think.
I didn't configure the XBee on the Arduino at all. The one on the USB Explorer is connected with X-CTU by using VirtualBox (windows 7). I've tried to configure that by following this post: Antipasto Hardware Blog: XBee Shield to XBee Shield Communication. But after that I can't connect that one anymore, X-CTU has troubles opening the COM-port...
Is there somebody who have experience at communicating by XBee's between a MacBook and a Arduino? I can't find any good tutorial on this subject.
Maarten.
PS. some links on Arduino Playground - InterfacingWithHardware are not existing anymore...
