Examples

The examples in the following sections assume you are using the Digi Remote Manager Schedule
wizard. However, you should be aware that operations can be created and performed
programmatically via web service calls or via the API explorer. The XML web service calls provide more
options than are available in the GUI dashboard for some tasks.

Example: Read settings and state using Remote Manager

In order to configure devices you will need to know the structure of the XML for your XBee's settings.
The easiest way to obtain this is to perform a query_setting RCI request against your device.
