I bought two ufl xbee modules from you and was able to connect both to a PC via USB links. I was able to write /setup their communication protocol variables.
However, when I tried to setup transparent or AT mode. Neither xbee was able to find each other regardless of the setup options that can be found online.
I then was trying to see if the lack of a UFL antenna explains and tried to repeat the above by putting the modules as close as possible but to no avail.
Does the lack of a connected UFL present xbees finding each other wirelessly ?
I would imagine so, do you have a link or part number there so we can take a look for you?
Without an attached antenna sometimes you can even damage the board!
I’d strongly advise against using the modules without an antenna. As @Liam120347 mentioned, it can cause damage to the units, There are a few options depending on what sort of form factor you were looking for:
There’s tons more in the Core Electronics range, just make sure you stick to the 2.4GHz that these modules operate at.
