DM 07: Set low power mode

This program shows how to set a low power state in XBee-Digimesh: * SM=0: Normal Mode * SM=1: Asynchronous Pin Sleep Mode

Required Materials

1 x Waspmote 1 x Battery 1 x MiniUSB wire 1 x XBee-Digimesh module

Notes

- The battery has to be connected. - This example can be executed in Waspmote v12

Output

E#
Sleep mode example
sleep mode set

1. XBee in sleep mode
RED LED switched on
While XBee is in sleep mode --> wait for 20 seconds...

2. XBee wakes-up
RED LED switched off
While XBee is in normal mode --> wait for 5 seconds...
