Troubleshooting
Failure to enter Command mode is often due to baud rate mismatch. Ensure that the baud rate of the
connection matches the baud rate of the device. By default,
There are two alternative ways to enter Command mode:
A serial break for six seconds enters Command mode. You can issue the "break" command
n
from a serial console, it is often a button or menu item.
Asserting DIN (serial break) upon power up or reset enters Command mode. XCTU guides you
n
through a reset and automatically issues the break when needed.
Both of these methods temporarily set the device's baud rate to 9600 and return an OK on the UART
to indicate that Command mode is active. When Command mode exits, the device returns to normal
operation at the baud rate that BD is set to.
Send AT commands
Once the device enters Command mode, use the syntax in the following figure to send AT commands.
Every AT command starts with the letters AT, which stands for "attention." The AT is followed by two
characters that indicate which command is being issued, then by some optional configuration values.
To read a parameter value stored in the device's register, omit the parameter field.
Multiple AT commands
You can send multiple AT commands at a time when they are separated by a comma in Command
mode; for example, ATNIMy XBee,AC<cr>.
The preceding example changes the NI (Node Identifier) to My XBee and makes the setting active
through

Response to AT commands
When using AT commands to set parameters the XBee Smart Modem responds with OK<cr> if
successful and ERROR<cr> if not.
