No need special code for XBee, because XBee just using UART. You just do coding for UART transmit and UART receive.
This is example.

Thanks shahrul...but now i have problem wif xbee firmware...
after write firmware to xbee, it become unable to communicate wif modem..
do u have any idea about this?

I don't know about this. I also try to update XBee firmware before this, then unable to communicate, after that I throw away..

shahrul, you throw it away?

I have problem before too, because reloading firmware or upgrading firmware will take time as the firmware is huge, so it communication is not stable, mostly it will corrupt, thus, communication fail.

But there is method to recovered it. Let me search and see....

OK, here you go, the XBee FAQ

I have try the method to recover, I tried the default baudrate and also all the baudrate, but still can't connect. So, yes I throw away.

I solved it already,I download latest x ctu version (not 5100 version that from cytron link). firmware updating is completed!!!

What is the latest version, mind sharing the link? I would like to try too

http://ftp1.digi.com/support/utilities/40003002_B.exe
XCTU 32-bit ver. 5.2.7.5 installer
I USED THIS VERSION..
I THINK THE PROBLEM IS FIRMWARE VERSION...

mike, thanks!
