Overview
The Wireless SD shield allows an Arduino board to communicate wirelessly using a wireless module. It is
based on the
Xbee modules from
Digi, but can use any module with the same footprint. The module can
communicate up to 100 feet indoors or 300 feet outdoors (with line-of-sight). It can be used as a
serial/usb replacement or you can put it into a command mode and configure it for a variety of broadcast
and mesh networking options. The shields breaks out each of the Xbee's pins to a through-hole solder
pad.
Included on board is a SD card slot. When using the SD Library to access the card, Pin 4 is CS and cannot
be used otherwise. SPI also relies on pins 11, 12, and 13 for communication.
Also on board is a switch allowing for control via USB or the microcontroller.

Switch Settings
The Wireless SD shield has an onboard switch labelled Micro and USB. This determine how the Xbee's
serial communication connects to the serial communication between the microcontroller (ATmega8 or
ATmega168) and USB-to-serial chip on the Arduino board.
