Programmable XBee SDK v1.6.0, July 2015

Supported Hardware and Software

Hardware

The Programmable XBee SDK currently supports following Digi Programmable XBee modules:

  • XBee ZB (S2B)
    • 32KB flash memory
    • 128KB flash memory
  • XBee ZB (S2C)
    • 32KB flash memory
  • XBee ZB (S2CTH)
    • 32KB flash memory
  • XBee 865/868LP DigiMesh (S8)
    • 32KB flash memory
  • XBee 900HP DigiMesh (S3B)
    • 32KB flash memory

Software

The Programmable XBee SDK currently supports following host Operating Systems:

  • Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7/8

Changes with respect to previous version

  • XBee Extensions:
    • The XBee Extensions now support the XBee ZB (S2CTH) module.
  • XBee Firmware Library:
    • Added Support for S2CTH module.
    • Improved power consumption on sleep mode.
    • Bug fixes:
      • Enabled pull-up in the pin that connects cpu-rx and radio-tx. Allows fast boot of S2CTH module
      • sys_watchdog_reset() is now called during banner to avoid watchdog reset when console is at 9600bps.
      • Fixed an issue that was causing the version string to be wrong in some scenarios.

Known Issues and limitations

  • The Virtual EEPROM is not currently supported by the 128KB module variants.
  • Special considerations must be taken into account, regarding some special pins on the XBee ZB (S2B/S2C):
    • The RESET pin, when used as standard GPIO, has to be configured as input (due to a limitation of the 9S08QE).
    • The BKGD pin, when used as standard GPIO, has to be configured as output (due to a limitation of the 9S08QE).
