Troubleshooting

Resolution

Try the following, in order. If one of the steps resolves the issue, you're done.
1. Remove and re-insert the XBee module into your computer.
2. If the OS is still unable to install the driver, remove and re-insert the XBee module into another
USB port.
3. If your computer fails during the driver initialization problem and you are still unable to install
the drivers, complete the following steps:
a. Open the Device Manager.
b. In the Other Devices section, right-click on the device T232R USB UART and click
c. Plug in your device and allow your system to reinstall the drivers.

Use LEDs to identify XBee modules

You want to force LEDs to blink so you can easily locate an XBee module.
Resolution
To locate an XBee module using LEDs:
1. In XCTU, select one of your XBee modules and click the Read radio settings button
2. Observe which XBee module has the Rx and Tx LED lights blinking green and yellow on its
development board.

No remote devices to select for a range test

If there are no remote XBee modules to select in the Radio Range Test dialog, try one of the following
resolutions.

Check cables

The USB cables should be firmly and fully attached to both the computer and the XBee development
board. When attached correctly, the association LED on the adapter is lit.
Check that the XBee module is fully seated in the XBee
development board
When the XBee module is correctly installed, it is pushed fully into the board and no air or metal is
visible between the plastic of the adapter socket and the XBee module headers. Also, check that all
ten pins on each side of the XBee module are in a matching hole in the socket.

Check the XBee module orientation

The angled "nose" of the XBee module should match the lines on the silk screening of the board and
point away from the USB socket on the XBee development board.
