Open sv7kwi opened 10 years ago

sv7kwi commented 10 years ago

Hello , Please Help!!!!!!!!!!

I am trying to connect xbee xb24 with mission planner. I succesfully configure the two radios via xctu soft , and the two radios are communicate perfectly. After that i open the mission planner and check that i have the same comport , same baud rate and from initial setup /3dr radio page push the ''Load settings'' button after some wait i receive '' Failed to ener command mode''. If i try to connect with the radio on the apm2.5 after 30s ''No Heartbeat Packet receive''. Is there something i missed? I notice that when i am trying to Load settings the mavlink trying to send the following commands ATI AT&T , ATO wich is not recognized by the xbee module.

the 3dr radio page is for 3dr radios. not xbees.

But I think this page is for mission planner issues and I have problem with mission planner.

By the way, it's not possible to connect the radio and the usb cable at the same time.

First I want to thank you for your reply. Sorry I forget to mention that when I try to connect via xbee's I disconnect the USB and plug the lipo battery on the apn board. My opinion is that I have problem between USB xbee adaptor and the mission planner software or it is some bug in the ftdi driver. Also I want to ask if there are specific settings for xbee on mission planner. Thank you.

what baud rate and air rate do you have set on the xbees? it maybe to slow.

sv7kwi commented 10 years ago

Thank you again for the reply. I use the recommended 57600 baud rate. I make some tests on slower or faster rates with no luck at all.
