That is good .

Yes you have to connect Rx and TX of Module B. This way the data sent by X-CTU will return back to it, and it will be able verify it. Because C-CTU knows what its sending and receiving. On the basis of this it will tell the quality of your data received.

salaams..did all the tests uptill step 2…All is gud alhamdolillah….
Now abt step 3…
u mean to say that Module B should'nt be inserted in anything..i just hav to connect its pin 2 and 3 using any connector and keep it in air..then try the loopback…right…i-e the range test…

[...] you are done with the hardware, in next post we will come to the software part. And if you are a good self-learner give it a test and download [...]

I am making a project in which there are two line follower robots. They communicate to each other through Xbee modules. The robots follow each other on the track. if the first robot senses an obstacle then it signals the second to stop through Zigbee communication and similarly if the second robot senses an obstacle then it signals the first to stop.Both will be configured as receivers on power on and when any one senses an obstacle then that robot will act as a transmitter.
my question :
Do i need to configure any module to act as cordinator??
{ because in datasheets it is mentioned that the network can only be started by a cordinator.}
if i configure the modules as end devices then will it work??
I’m an amateur with these Xbee modules and i’m finding your info very supportive.

For communication between more than two XBees you wouldn’t have to exchange their addresses. With enabling few modes will setup a network automatically. In some future posts it will be explained thoroughly.

It is 250Kbps. And yes you can send digital audio files who has bit rate of 250Kbps to stream.

Very informative article.
What should we do if we want to inter-connect 5 Xbees together? I mean do they automatically configure their network topology or do we have to tell them?

What is the data-transmission rate between X-bees? Can we transfer music in real-time?
