Example: Update XBee firmware using Remote Manager
You can use a scheduled task to update the XBee Cellular firmware. Since the device is configured by
default to poll Remote Manager once a day, you need to be able to set up a scheduled task to update
the device's firmware to take advantage of new features and fixes. To update the firmware to a new
version you will need to obtain the .gbl file for the new firmware from our support site. This file is one
of the files in the .zip (for example, XBXC-31011.zip) archive that you can download for the product.
