Hello All.
I"m trying to get a xBee to go into low power mode. I'm using an xBee Series 1 and the Adafruit xBee Adapter. I'm trying to set my xBee in Pin Mode Sleep (Sleep Mode = 1 (ATSM=1). I used X-CTU to change the parameters on the xBee.
Using a voltage divider (to step the voltage down from 5v to 3v), I wired up digital pin 9 on my Arduino to pin 9 on the xBee.
To put the xBee into sleep, I'm supposed to assert pin 9. To wake it, I pull the pin low.
Using an ohm meter, I don't see any change in the power draw change between the two states. Also, the green light keeps flashing the whole time. I am assuming the green light will go out when the xBee is put in low power mode.
Any thoughts? I'm kinda at my wits end on this one!
Thanks!
xBee Low Power - anybody get it working?
