Connect XBee-PRO SX development boards to a PC
1. Connect both SX development boards to power supplies and plug the power supplies into an
outlet. The power supply is required when using the XBee-PRO SX because the current draw
when transmitting will exceed what a USB port can supply.
2. Connect the SX development boards to the USB port on a PC via the mini-USB cables. Separate
the SX development boards by at least 2 m (6 ft).
3. Connect the antennas to the RPSMA connector on the SX development boards.
