1. Introduction

Netvox Z108A, a ZigBee USB Dongle, acts as a coordinator or a router in ZigBee network. It is designed for a

computer or a gateway to communicate with ZigBee network. Users can search devices, send commands, control

devices, or perform customized scheduling using ZigBee applications.

What is ZigBee?

ZigBee is a short range wireless transmission technology based on IEEE802.15.4 standard and supports multiple

network topologies such as point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and mesh networks. It is defined for a

general-purpose, cost-effective, low-power-consumption, low-data-rate, and easy-to-install wireless solution for

industrial control, embedded sensing, medical data collection, smoke and intruder warning, building automation

and home automation, etc.

5. Setting up Z108A

5-1. Join the ZigBee Network

Z108A can act as:

A. Coordinator: After Z108A is powered on, it will create a ZigBee network. After the ZigBee network is

built up, the indicator will stay ON. To build a new network, please restore Z108A to factory setting.

B. Router: Z108A will search and try to join a ZigBee network after it is powered on. The indicator will

flash once when it finds out a network to join. After Z108A joined a network, the indicator would stay

ON. Otherwise, the indicator will be OFF.

5-2. Permit-Join

Z108A is designed to work as a coordinator or a router. To allow other devices to join the ZigBee network,

users could enable the Permit-Join feature using ZigBee application. While Permit-Join feature is turned on,

the indicator would flash per second.

5-3. Switch Transmission Mode

Z108A performs two transmission modes: the data-transmission mode (default) and the

command-transmission mode.

To switch the modes, please use this command format:

02 Cmd=0x0FFE Len=0x11 Data CRC

The command to switch to data-transmission mode

"020FFE117777772E6E6574766F782E636F6D2E636ECB"

It is actually "www.netvox.com.cn"

After it switches to data-transmission mode successfully, the stream "021FFE0100E0" is returned.

In data transmission, Z108A broadcasts data wirelessly. Raw data ‘010203’, for example, can be entered and

transmitted directly. Raw data can also be received wirelessly without any need of conversion. The data

received can be ported to serial connection of, for example, a PC.

The command to switch to command-transmission mode

"020FFE115757572E4E4554564F582E434F4D2E434ECB"

It is actually "WWW.NETVOX.COM.CN"

After it switches command-transmission mode successfully, the stream "021FFE0100E0" is returned.

The module strictly follows Profile Command to sent and receive control commands.

5-4. Control and Management

Users could use ZiG-BUTLER to manage your ZigBee network. From ZiG-BUTLER, you are able to send

commands (such as On/Off) to the ZigBee network. Follow the instructions bellow for control and

management.

Step1. Run ZiG-BUTLER. Go to System →Select ZigBee Adapter/Gateway

Step2. Click Yes.

Step3. Choose Z103 in Please Select Device Type.

Step4. Choose Port and click Test.

Step5. It shows Successful Connection when the test is succeeded; otherwise, it shows Connection

Failed.

Step6. Click Save and Close to complete the setting..

5-5. Restore to Factory Setting

To restore Z108A to factory setting, please use ZigBee applications.

6. Home Automation Clusters for Z108A

A cluster is a set of related attributes and commands which are grouped together to provide a specific function. A

simple example of a cluster would be the On/Off cluster which defines how an on/off switch behaves. This table

lists the clusters which are supported by Z108A.
