Using xbee and pc to get telemtry and controlling MW

Post by ItzikGili »

Hi all,
I would like to try to fly my MW (FW 2.3) pro with 2 xbee pro (s3b 900) - both with firmware xbee-pro-900HP 200k.
For the first step I wanted to get telemetry only.
I've configured the xbee on the pc side as follows:
- CE: indirect message coordinator
- DH: 13A200
- DL: the serial of the other xbee card.
- NO: 5
- Baud: 57600
- AP: API mode with escapes
- DD: B0000
- ID: 1234

The other Xbee is wired to the TX0 RX0 (crossed) on my MW board and configured:
- CE: standard router
- DH: 13A200
- DL: the serial of the other xbee card.
- IR: 3C
- Baud: 57600
- AP: transparent
- DD: B0000
- ID: 1234


When I Connect both xbee cards to the computer I can see that they communicate and i can send messages from one to another.

after wiring I changed the config.h file and uploaded it:
#define SERIAL0_COM_SPEED 57600

then removed the USB cable, used the winGUI 2.3 pre 8 (tried also pre 6 and MultiWiiConf)
chose com 5(Its the right com port) and baud 57600,
after it hangs for a while, It says:
"please check if you have selected the right com port".
(tryed everything with 112500 as well).

can you please help me with that? :roll:
