Experiment 22
Exploring Cyclic-Sleep Operations
Requirements
2 XBee modules
1 XBee adapter board
1 Solderless breadboard
1 USB-to-XBee adapter
1 USB cable—type-A to mini-B
2 LEDs
2 330-ohm resistors, 1/4 watt, 10% resistor (orange-orange-brown)

1 10-kohm potentiometer
Digi X-CTU software running on a Windows PC, with an open USB port
Introduction
In this experiment you will learn how to use the cyclic-sleep capabilities of XBee modules in a network. These capabilities let you place modules in sleep modes that save power and extend battery life. Keep in mind the cyclic-sleep modes do not let communications occur ...
