This will be easy mode for most of you, I have a set of xbee usb wireless moduls. A Net-mini. All I want to do is get some examples of the code to read from my computer to the xbee mods, and turn on an LED on my Net-mini, Can anyone send we some good links on doing this, I just need full code for the net-Mini, not the PC side of that. Its working good. I can't figure out the code I need to put in the net-Mini to read and execute the LED. Thanks

Hm, the PC-side code and the netduino code should be smiliar.

You need to connect the XBee to netduino's TTL-level serial port.
Open the serial port and listen to the proper bytes on which you want to switch the LED.

private static SerialPort serialPort;
private OutputPort led = new OutputPort(Pins.ONBOARD_LED, false);

public static void Main()
{
	serialPort = new SerialPort("COM1", 9600, Parity.None, 8, StopBits.One);
	serialPort.Open();
	serialPort.DataReceived += new SerialDataReceivedEventHandler(serialPort_DataReceived);
	
	Thread.Sleep(Timeout.Infinite);
}

private static void serialPort_DataReceived(object sender, SerialDataReceivedEventArgs e)  {
	// Read the bytes and switch LED
        led.Write(true);
}
