Re: Simple XBee code not working

[Argel]

You are missing the closing paren for the if statement:

if ( !$api->tx( { sh => 0, sl => 0 }, 'hello world!' )  ) {
   1          2                                      1  ^-- add

Don't feel too bad that you missed it. Sometimes the easy ones like these are the hardest to see. That's why a second pair of eyes can be so important!

With some help from JEagle himself i am now able to talk to remote XBees too. Below is a simple AT get request. Jason

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use Win32::SerialPort;
use Device::XBee::API;

#Tuna - 13A200 40475351
my $serial_port_device = Win32::SerialPort->start ("tpj4.cfg") || die;

# Create the API object
my $api = Device::XBee::API->new( { fh => $serial_port_device,
    packet_timeout => 10})  || die $!;
   
my ($High, $Low, $Network) = (0x13A200, 1083841427, 0xFFFE);


#Requests Temperature built in - TP
my $at_frame_id = $api->remote_at( { sh => $High, sl => $Low }, 'tp' )
+;

# Receive the reply
my $rx = $api->rx_frame_id( $at_frame_id );

    # Prints ALL hash values and keys
    my (%rx, $temp, $key, $value);
    while (($key,$value) = each $rx)
    {
         print "$key $value \n";
    }

# Prints results
    print 'RX return code:' . $rx->{status} . " \n\n";
    print 'Data received:' . $rx->{data_as_int} . " \n\n";
    
    my $CTemperature = sprintf("%x",$rx->{data_as_int});

    my $FTemperature = $CTemperature * 9 / 5 + 32; #F = 9 / 5 C + 32 

    print "\n\nTemperature IS - " . $CTemperature . "C or " . "$FTempe
+rature F\n\n";



# IF Errors
die "No reply received" if !$rx;
if ( $rx->{status} != 0 )
{
     die "API error" if $rx->{is_error};
     die "Invalid command" if $rx->{is_invalid_command};
     die "Invalid parameter" if $rx->{is_invalid_parameter};
     die "Unknown error";
}
