Setting Up Sample Programs - RabbitCore RCM4500W User Manual

6.2.2 Setting up Sample Programs

The sample programs are set up so that the RCM4510W module you are using is a ZigBee end
device, router, or coordinator. Uncomment the line corresponding to the role the RCM4510W will
have once it is running the sample program. The default described in the sample programs is for
the RCM4510W module to be either a router (shown below) or an end device.
// Set XBEE_ROLE to NODE_TYPE_COORD, NODE_TYPE_ROUTER or NODE_TYPE_ENDDEV
// match your XBee's firmware.
to
#define XBEE_ROLE
NOTE: Remember that the firmware loaded to the XBee RF module is different depending on
whether the RCM4510 W is an end device/router (default) or a coordinator. See
"Additional Configuration Instructions," for information on how to download firmware
to the RCM4510W module to set it up as a coordinator or to resume its original configu-
ration as a router (ZigBee PRO) or an end device/router (ZNet 2.5).
There are several macros that may be changed to facilitate your setup. The macros can be
included as part of the program code, or they may be put into the Program Options "Defines" on
the "Defines" tab in the
