XBee Series 2 firmware revision history

XBee Series 2 Firmware Versions

XBee version numbers will have 4 significant digits. A version number is reported by ATVR with 3 or 4 numbers. All numbers are hexadecimal and can have a range from 0-0xF. A version can be reported as "ABC" or "ABCD". Digits ABC are the main release number and D is the revision number from the main release. "D" is not required and if it is not present, a 0 is assumed for D. "B" is a variant designator, the following variants exist:

• "0" - ZigBee Coordinator Code, AT Command Mode (AP = 0)
  
• "1" - ZigBee CoordinatorCode, API Mode (AP = 1,2)
  
• "2" - ZigBee Router / End Device Code, AT Command Mode (AP = 0)
  
• "3" - ZigBee Router / End Device Code, API Mode (AP = 1,2)
  
• "4" - Zigbee Router Code, 1 Wire Sensor
  

All releases will have an even number for C. All Beta developments will have an odd number for C. Field D is always present even when D is 0.

There are no beta releases at this time.
