Electronic – Upload XBee firmware without a PC and XCTU

firmwaremicrocontrollerwirelessxbee

So, as the title suggests, I would like to know if there is a way of uploading a firmware to a XBee module, throug the serial without a PC. What I mean is, I have a microcontroller, I would have the firmware file(s) stored in some kind of memory (like an SD card, flash…) and directly upload this firmware through serial without the need to get assistence from a computer.

I don't really know if this is possible, I don't hink it is, but it would be great for my project if it was! 🙂 So, since I didn't find anything relevant on this matter, maybe one of us had experienced this and/or tell me with certainty that it is or is not possible!

Thanks!

If the firmware upload protocol is known a micro-controller can do this. But with a quick google I did not find a description of this protocol, so this might be a problem. Hardware-wise the interface is just a serial connection.
