Hello,
We are doing a wireless sensor network project using Xbee modules as our University Final year project. We have bought some Xbee Series 2 modules and Two XBIB-U-DEV (and XBIB-R-DEV) development kits ( USB and RS 232)
The was a small software came with them in a CD. Its called as X-CTU. It only has a range test. We couldn't programm motes as we wish through that development kit.Is there any IDE to do that? Any software?
We are confused how to do that.Please be kind enough to help us!!!

The XBEEs are not a microprocessor, you do not "program" them persay. They have a few abilities that you can enable/disable and some settings, but you need a smarter device to control the XBees.
