through a simple-to-use graphical interface. It includes new tools that make it easy to set up, configure and test Digi XBee.
Unique features like graphical network view, which graphically represents the Digi XBee network, along with the signal strength of each connection, and the XBee API frame builder, which intuitively helps to build and interpret API frames for XBee modules being used in API mode, combine to simplify development on the Digi XBee platform.
- Multi-platform application compatible with Windows and MacOS
- Graphical Network View for simple wireless network configuration and architecture
- API Frame Builder development tool for quickly building Digi XBee API frames
- Module Discovery mechanism enables automatic discovery of modules connected to your PC
