RoMeo Wireless Connector -> XBee adapter
Account cancelled 2012-03-09 04:02:54 2594 Views1 Replies Hi,
I want to connect LadyAda's XBee Adapter to the Wireless Connector of the RoMeo.
The RoMeos connectors pin layout is not FTDI compatible, but this is solvable by a different wiring.
The Silkscreen states the pins are the following:
GND, 5V, DTR, TX, RX
DTR (=Data Terminal Ready?), is a signal of the XBee but in the RoMeo shemantics the DTR pin maps to Reset...
If I measure the reset Pin against the "DTR" there is no connection...
-> What is it?
Thanks

I believe the DTR on the Romeo is wired to the reset pin in case you want to reset the romeo via wireless. For the Xbee all you need is:
3.3V
GND
Tx
Rx
If you don't get it working you might need to switch the Tx/Rx wires. Try a simple hello world program to test the connection.
