Bees which do not have onboard programmable systems can only be configured by using on-board FT232RL(USB to UART). Theses Bees are not suitable for standalone applications.
 
The on-board FT232RL can be used like any other 3.3V USB to UART interface when not connected to any Bee Modules. This is useful for programming a 3.3V MCU through Serial Port.
