Do I use Adafruit Adaptor 247 or 126 for Arduino

Post by oldogtrik »

I want to set up a mesh network to communicate with Arduino controlled cameras, so I want to put an XBee module on each Arduino. But I do not see a shield listed. From the descriptions it looks to me that I can use either the 126 Adapter or the 247 Adapter. The main difference being that the 247 has a USB port built in.
It also looks like either can be used on a PC.
Am I correct?

You are correct. We don't have a shield-type adapter. You can use either the 247 or the 126, and either can be connected to a computer. You'll need an FTDI cable to connect the 126 to a computer.
