Additional device configuration settings

There are several additional device features that are not essential for IP network connectivity, but

which will require configuration settings to be entered or changed from their defaults.

Python

Any Python programs loaded onto the ConnectPort X2e ZB can be configured to start

automatically at system startup.

XBee settings

The ConnectPort X2e ZB provides a gateway between an Internet Protocol (IP) network wired or

wireless devices and a network of various wireless devices containing XBee or ZigBee wireless RF

modules. Typically, these wireless devices are small sensors and controllers. Remote nodes in an

XBee network can be other Digi ZB or SE nodes, or 3rd-party nodes.

The XBee module can be configured as a coordinator or router in an XBee or ZigBee network. For

information on configuring the XBee module as a coordinator or router, and for complete XBee

module settings and their descriptions, and discussions of XBee network concepts, see the

XBee/XBee-PRO ZB SMT RF Modules Product Manual (90000976).

SureLink™ settings

Digi SureLink™ is an optional feature that monitors the integrity of an established network

connection. Several settings and tests can be configured to perform a selected test to examine the

functional integrity of the network connection, and take action to recover the connection in the

event that it is lost.

Currently SureLink is supported for cellular communications only. The SureLink feature and its

settings are off by default, and must be enabled and configured. To configure SureLink from the

web interface, see page 49. To configure SureLink from iDigi, see page 58.
