Debugging
If you experience problems with the settings in this example, you can load the default settings in
XCTU:
1.
On the Configuration toolbar, click the Default button to load the default values
established by the firmware, and click Yes to confirm.
2. Factory settings are loaded but not written to the device. To write them, click the Write button
on the toolbar.
Get started with MicroPython
This guide provides an overview of how to use MicroPython with the XBee Smart Modem. For in-depth
information and more complex code examples, refer to the Digi MicroPython Programming Guide.
Continue with this guide for simple examples to get started using MicroPython on the XBee Smart
Modem.
About MicroPython
MicroPython is an open-source programming language based on Python 3, with much of the same
syntax and functionality, but modified to fit on small devices with limited hardware resources, such as
microcontrollers, or in this case, a cellular modem.
Why use MicroPython
MicroPython enables on-board intelligence for simple sensor or actuator applications using digital and
analog I/O. MicroPython can help manage battery life. Cryptic readings can be transformed into useful
data, excess transmissions can be intelligently filtered out, modern sensors and actuators can be
employed directly, and logic can glue inputs and outputs together in an intelligent way.
