Digi XBee® 3 Cellular LTE Cat 1 AT&T Smart Modem User Guide

133

Select an operating mode

The XBee Smart Modem interfaces to a host device such as a microcontroller or computer through a

logic-level asynchronous serial port. It uses a UART for serial communication with those devices.

The XBee Smart Modem supports three operating modes: Transparent operating mode, APIoperating

mode, and Bypass operating mode. The default mode is Transparent operating mode. Use the AP (API

Enable) command to select a different operating mode.

The following flowchart illustrates how the modes relate to each other.
