xBee Issues

Apr 02, 2025

I am still having issues with getting the xBees working. Everything seems to work normally when they're both connected to my computer, but when I connect them to an arduino/STM32 and try to send/receive serial data, nothing happens... It seems like it should be easy? There's a decent number of basic arduino tutorials out there. I suspect there's an issue with my STM32 code/setup. Should just be a matter of serial comms, once everything is set up.

Here's how I plan to tackle this problem:

Debug Next Steps:

1. Arduino Uno to Uno comms
2. Arduino Uno to PC comms
3. Arduino Uno to STM32 comms
4. STM32 to PC comms?
   • This should work, but if not I am content to just operate the groundstation with an Arduino Uno attached to my laptop.
