TheMatlab Simulink design and TeraTerm Pro software must also use the same Baud rate.The student can view all the possibilities of these parameters on the XBEE Series 1 datasheet found online. In general, the student should use the letter B or C for the Channeland then a combination of four numbers for the PAN ID. You should verify that thisspecific combination is not being used by any other student to avoid communicating withtheir modules.
