868LP 08b: Complete example RX

This is a complete example for XBee-868LP This example shows how to receive a packet. When the source address is the expected one, an answer is sent back to the emitter Waspmote

Required Materials

1 x Waspmote 1 x Battery 1 x MiniUSB wire 1 x XBee 868LP

Notes

- The battery has to be connected. - This example can be executed in Waspmote v15
