7
+ == Ruby::XBee - What is it?
8
+ Ruby::XBee lets you configure and access Digi XBee RF devices using ruby classes and ruby-based
9
+ command line utilities.
10
+
11
+ Current host platforms supported:
12
+ * Linux (Intel)
13
+ * Mac OS X (PPC or Intel)
14
+
15
+ == What is an XBee?
16
+ XBee devices are handy, low-cost RF data radios often used in embedded applications for
17
+ communicating with microcontrollers and sensors. The distance an XBee covers ranges from a
18
+ few hundred feet to 15 miles line of sight depending upon the XBee device type, frequency,
19
+ antenna type, and power ratings.
20
+
21
+ Some XBees can be configured to support the ZigBee standard. Other XBees support
22
+ various forms of proprietary mesh networking especially suited to scaling sensor networks.
23
+
24
+ To learn more about Digi's XBee modules, see Digi's web site at:
25
+ http://www.digi.com/products/wireless-wired-embedded-solutions/zigbee-rf-modules/zigbee-mesh-module/
26
+
27
+ == Why use Ruby::XBee?
28
+
29
+ * Ruby::XBee is a convenient way to script the configuration of XBee especially if you have a lot of XBees to program.
30
+ * Ruby::XBee lends itself to building command line applications and deploying XBee networks.
31
+ * Ruby::XBee is a quick way to experiment with functionality of XBees.
32
+ * Ruby::XBee can alleviate the need to memorize lots of AT modem commands and their parameters.
33
+ * Since Digi has no configuration host support for Linux or OS X, if these are your native or preferred environments, Ruby::XBee may be for you.
34
+ * Ruby::XBee is open source and contributions are welcome.
35
+
36
+ == Ruby::XBee Documentation
37
+
38
+ See doc/index.html from the downloaded bundle for detailed documentation on Ruby XBee class and utilities.
39
+ This documentation is primarily RDoc generated from the actual code, so it should be complete and accurate.
40
+ If documentation mistakes are found, please report errors to landon att 360vl com.
41
+
42
+ Not all of the many XBee features are supported by Ruby::XBee, but many of the most common ones are. New features
43
+ will be supported as this software evolves. Complete XBee feature coverage represents a main project goal and is
44
+ a significant area of solicited contributions.
45
+
46
+ Example use of the core XBee ruby class can be found in the utilities themselves:
47
+ xbeeinfo.rb, xbeeconfigure.rb, xbeedio.rb, xbeelisten.rb, xbeesend.rb
48
+
49
+ == Quick Start
50
+ 0. install ruby 1.9.3 or 2.0.0 for your platform (see http://www.ruby-lang.org)
51
+ 1. download the ruby-xbee ( git clone https://github.com/exsilium/ruby-xbee )
52
+ 2. determine your /dev string and configure that in bin/ruby-xbee.rb
53
+ 3. try ./bin/xbeeinfo.rb
54
+
55
+ == Detailed Quick Start
56
+ === clone the ruby-xbee repository.
57
+
58
+ git clone https://github.com/exsilium/ruby-xbee
59
+
60
+ === Determine your /dev string and configure that in bin/ruby-xbee.rb
61
+
62
+ When you plug in your XBee using an USB explorer board such as the Sparkfun XBee explorer:
63
+
64
+ https://www.sparkfun.com/products/8687
65
+
66
+ a new device will appear in the /dev directory of your Mac or Linux machine. As a hint,
67
+ look for a device such as /dev/tty.usb* or /dev/ttyUSB*
68
+
69
+ If you use the Sparkfun XBee explorer board mentioned above as an example, you will see
70
+ a device such as:
71
+
72
+ ls -l /dev/tty.usbserial*-
73
+ crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 10, 14 Jan 2 11:03 /dev/tty.usbserial-A80081sF
74
+
75
+ Each USB device has a unique tag so your device will not be named exactly the same as
76
+ this example.
77
+
78
+ Once you determine the device name, edit the ruby-xbee/bin/ruby-xbee.rb file and
79
+ modify the @xbee_usbdev_str to match your device. Example:
80
+
81
+ @xbee_usbdev_str = "/dev/tty.usbserial-A80081sF"
82
+
83
+ save the ruby-xbee.rb file.
84
+
85
+ === Build and install the RubyGem
86
+
87
+ If you are relying on rvm, please set the appropriate gemset prior
88
+
89
+ gem build ruby-xbee.gemspec
90
+ gem install ruby-xbee-<version>.gem
91
+
92
+ === Try xbeeinfo.rb
93
+
94
+ Once the RubyGem is properly installed you can try to call one of the distributed scripts.
95
+
96
+ Insure your XBee device is plugged into your host and the device is enumerated
97
+ in /dev according to Step 2 above.
98
+
99
+ xbeeinfo.rb
100
+
101
+ If everything's configured correctly you will see output from xbeeinfo similar to
102
+ this (your output will vary):
103
+
104
+ cooper:ruby-xbee lcox$ ./xbeeinfo.rb

131
+ == Troubleshooting
132
+
133
+ XBee won't respond:
134
+ * Refer to: http://www.faludi.com/projects/common-xbee-mistakes/
135
+ * Insure your XBee has the latest firmware flashed into the device (use Digi X-CTU)
136
+ * Insure your device's USB driver is enumerated in the /dev directory when you plug in USB
137
+ * Insure your XBee device and Ruby::XBee baud rate configuration is identical
138
+ * Digi's XBee development boards do not have USB drivers for OS X or Linux.
139
+ I recommend using SparkFun USB XBee Explorer board: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/8687
140
+ This board supports drivers that are compatible with OS X and Linux operating systems. This board
141
+ can be used with Digi's X-CTU windows configuration utility as well, so it's a great board to have
142
+ if you're working with XBee on various platforms.
143
+ * Insure your full device path is configured in conf/xbeeconfig.rb
144
+ * Insure you can "talk" to your device with Digi X-CTU on Windows
145
+ - make sure the device itself can be contacted before trying again with Ruby::XBee
146
+ * Try the Linux or OS X 'screen' command to contact the device:
147
+ screen /dev/tty.usbserial-A80081sF 9600
148
+ where you would replace the /dev/ string in the example above with the one for your USB XBee device.
149
+ When you plug in a USB serial device, Linux and OS X will enumerate that device automatically by adding
150
+ a new entry into the /dev directory.
151
+ * When you make contact with the device using 'screen', issue a +++ and wait for a second or two for an OK response
152
+ * Contact Digi. See: http://www.digi.com/support/productdetail?pid=3257 (S1) or http://www.digi.com/support/productdetail?pid=3430 (S2)
153
+
154
+ Other than these suggestions, sorry, I have no time to support connectivity problems to the XBee itself.
155
+ Google is your friend.
156
+
157
+ == Limitations
158
+ * Not all XBee Series 1 features are supported, though many are.
159
+ * New efforts are mostly aimed towards supporting Series 2. Efforts are made not to break Series 1
160
+ * No provision is made to flash new device firmware into the XBee from Ruby::XBee classes or utilities.
161
+ Reflashing firmware requires using Digi's X-CTU windows program. Code contributions in this area are welcome.
162
+
163
+ == See Also
164
+ There are several other utilties included with Ruby::XBee. See also:
165
+
166
+ * xbeedio.rb - A Ruby utility for configuring and manipulating XBee DIO ports
167
+ * xbeeinfo.rb - A Ruby utility for extracting XBee setup information using xbee ruby class (Ruby::XBee)
168
+ * xbeelisten.rb - A ruby utility for listening to data output from an XBee
169
+ * xbeesend.rb - A ruby utility for sending raw data to and through an XBee

215
+
216
+ rdoc -f hanna
217
+
