.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
.B A VERSION OF THIS FUNCTION MUST BE CALLED BEFORE ANY OTHER libxbee FUNCTION!
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.BR xbee_setup ()
|
||
|
function will setup libxbee so that it can handle an XBee.
|
||
|
It takes 2 arguments.
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
The argument
|
||
|
.I path
|
||
|
is the path to the serial port that the XBee is connected to (e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0).
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.I baudrate
|
||
|
is the baud rate that the local XBee is configured to run at. The following are avaliable:
|
||
|
.in +2n
|
||
|
.nf
|
||
|
.B 1200
|
||
|
.B 2400
|
||
|
.B 4800
|
||
|
.B 9600
|
||
|
.B 19200
|
||
|
.B 38400
|
||
|
.B 57600
|
||
|
.BR 115200 " - this is potentially unstable (read the XBee manual to find out why...)"
|
||
|
.fi
|
||
|
.in
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
Using
|
||
|
.BR xbee_setuplog ()
|
||
|
is exactly the same, but instead you give an open file descriptor. All log messages will be written to this file (you can use stderr or stdout if you want!). NOTE: The file descriptor is
|
||
|
.BR dup ()'ed
|
||
|
before use, so you may close it immediately. Providing a value of
|
||
|
.B 0
|
||
|
will disable the log output.
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
Using
|
||
|
.BR xbee_setupAPI ()
|
||
|
is exactly the same, but instead you provide the 'Command Sequence' character and the 'Guard Time' that your local XBee has been configured with.
|
||
|
libxbee will then place your XBee in API mode 2, and when you call
|
||
|
.BR xbee_end ()
|
||
|
it will return your XBee to its previous API mode.
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
Using
|
||
|
.BR xbee_setuplogAPI ()
|
||
|
is simply a combination of
|
||
|
.BR xbee_setuplog ()
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.BR xbee_setupAPI ()
|
||
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
||
|
If any error occures,
|
||
|
.B -1
|
||
|
is returned. Otherwise
|
||
|
.B 0
|
||
|
is returned.
|
||
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
||
|
To setup libxbee to use /dev/ttyUSB0 at 57600 baud:
|
||
|
.in +4n
|
||
|
.nf
|
||
|
#include <xbee.h>
|
||
|
if (xbee_setup("/dev/ttyUSB0",57600) == -1) {
|
||
|
printf("Oh no...\n");
|
||
|
exit(1);
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
.fi
|
||
|
.in
|
||
|
.SH NOTE
|
||
|
If libxbee is compiled with
|
||
|
.B DEBUG
|
||
|
defined, then the log output will ALWAYS be enabled. If no file descriptor is provided, then stderr will be used.
