About this guide
This guide describes the features and functions of XBee Adapter, Router,
and Sensor products, including connection and setup information, pinouts,
configuration, data retrieval, and LEDs and buttons.
This section provides general information that applies to all products.
Scope
This guide covers all XBee ZNet 2.5 (Series 2) adapter, router, and sensor
products.
Compatibility Note
Two sets of XBee and XBee-PRO adapters are offered: Series 1 and
Series 2. Though overall performance and product specifications are
largely similar, the two series are built on distinct and non-compatible
technology platforms. Thus, users must standardize on one series or the
other for operability. The same is true for compatibility with the
ConnectPort X gateways. Series 1 XBee adapters are compatible only with
Series 1 gateways, while Series 2 XBee adapters are compatible only with
Series 2 gateways.
Mounting orientation
All XBee Adapters can be mounted in any orientation.
Warranty exception for batteries
Some XBee Adapters and Sensor products ship with alkaline batteries that
must be replaced by the user when discharged and are not covered under
the terms and conditions of the Digi warranty.
Lithium batteries must be replaced by qualified service personnel.
