Basic and Advanced radio settings
The Basic radio settings control basic operation of the XBee module in an XBee network.
Advanced radio settings control behavior of the XBee module at a more detailed level. Generally,
these settings can be left at their defaults.
For complete settings and descriptions of these options, refer to the Product Manual for the XBee
or XBee-PRO RF module in your product.
View and change configuration settings as needed. To apply configuration changes, click Apply.

Firmware updates for XBee modules
XBee RF modules can be updated with new firmware over the XBee network. Firmware updates
can be made both to the XBee RF module in the Digi device serving as a gateway to the XBee
network, and to the XBee RF modules in other XBee network nodes.
Firmware updates for the ConnectPort X gateway’s XBee module are available through
Digi Technical Support. Once loaded onto a PC, firmware updates can be loaded into the XBee
module by several methods:

Note
XBee Firmware requirements
The XBee firmware version must be compatible with the XBee module’s hardware and the
ConnectPort X gateway firmware.
The XBee firmware must also be over-the-air compatible with other nodes. Generally, this means
that the gateway and nodes must be the same network type (ZB, 802.15.4, etc.) and have the same
or similar firmware version.
Changing the PAN ID may make your XBee product inaccessible.
If you assign a Node Identifier, to view it, go to Configuration > XBee Network and
click Refresh. The new name is displayed in the Node Identifier field.
In the web interface for the ConnectPort X gateway, by clicking the Firmware Update
Setup link on the XBee Network Configuration page and uploading files containing
the new firmware. Multiple files may be uploaded, each containing a different firmware
type.
Firmware updates of network nodes can be scheduled and monitored on the
Firmware Update Status page.
Through the command line interface, using several options on the set xbee command.
XBee firmware can also be updated by sending over-the-air (OTA) commands to the
XBee module through the OTA graphical user interface of X-CTU, a software tool for
configuring XBee modules. In X-CTU, the OTA interface is called
Remote Configuration. However, the Enable over the air firmware updates
setting on the Firmware Update Setup page enables remote firmware updates
without having to use X-CTU.
