Introducing Digi XCTU
Configuration and Test Utility Software
Digi XBee
®
configuration software, Digi XCTU, has a
refreshed new look and feel with UI enhancements
and three brand new features to the software.
Command Line Interface Support
New to Digi XCTU is Command Line Interface (CLI) Support.
Now, users can execute the application in CLI mode without
the graphic interface. This is primarily useful for scripting and
automation purposes when managing large scale Digi XBee
deployments. The following features are supported within CLI
mode:
• List ports – A list of serial and USB ports can be retrieved in
command line mode.
• Update firmware – Firmware of any radio device can be
updated in this mode.
• Load profile – Now it is possible to load profiles to connected
devices through the CLI of Digi XCTU
Spectrum Analyzer
From within the Digi XCTU interface, users can test and measure
the spectrum of the radio's band. The analysis displays average,
maximum, and minimum values of each channel. This is helpful
to determine which channel to set your Digi XBee radios to and
troubleshoot network issues.
Throughput Tool
With the Throughput Tool users can measure the maximum
transfer ratio from one radio module to another within the same
network. The tool provides three session modes and several
payload configuration options to test different combinations and
understand the performance of your wireless network.
