FZ200BS Overview
(1) To configure the Zigbee network, set each device (FZ200BS) to Coordinator, Router and End
Device.
The initial factory set value of FZ200BS is set to Router.
(2) Do not use Broadcast accompanied by a lot of traffic in the Zigbee network unless it is vital to be
used.
It is not recommended to make a lot of traffic in the Zigbee network because it causes lots of trouble
when transmitting data and bothers to set the new route toward target devices.
(3) Do not set short time for data transmission in the Zigbee Network. The more nodes the Zigbee
Network has, the longer time for transmission time should be set.
Example.1) Zigbee Network Contribution using 10 FZ200BSs,
Set a time space to 2seconds for data transmission between FZ200BSs.
(set 2sec minimally per 10 FZ200BSs)
Example.2) Zigbee Network Contribution using 20 FZ200BSs,
Set a time space to 4seconds for data transmission between FZ200BSs.
(set 2sec minimally per 10 FZ200BSs*2=4sec)
It is not recommended to make a lot of traffic in the Zigbee Network.
It is not recommended to make a lot of traffic in the Zigbee network because it causes lots of trouble
when transmitting data and bothers to set the new route toward target devices.

(4) Coordinator and Router can configure child nodes up to 8
(5) End Devices cannot configure Child nodes
Setting FZ200BS to End Devices should be prior to the Zigbee Network Configuration. If you want to
change the device type of FZ200BS from Router to End Device in the Zigbee Network, you had
better re-configure the whole Zigbee Network in advance.
FZ200BS can configure Child nodes after they are set to Routers and participated in the Zigbee
Network. Also, other devices can participate in the Zigbee Network by setting the FZ200BS set to
Routers to their parent nodes, as well. If you change the FZ200BS set to parent nodes to End
Devices, the current End Devices cannot configure child nodes. In this situation, it is possibly can
happen that other devices set the Routers to their parent nodes before the Routers are changed to
End devices.
FZ200BS supports mesh network, so you can expect the stable Zigbee Network. However, in order
to make sure of proper Zigbee Network configuration, FZ200BS of child nodes had better save
FZ200BSs set to Router (or coordinator) as their parent nodes.
Thus, you had better set the type of each Device (especially End Device) before the Zigbee Network
Configuration.

(6) FZ200BS can configure the Zigbee Network up to 4 Depth.
(7) FZ200BSC configures the Zigbee Network with one Coordinator.
(8) FZ200BS can transmit data by multipath because it supports mesh network.
Contribute the Zigbee Network which has multipath.
(9) If you input Serial data into FZ200BS, It transmits the Serial data to its target device.
(10) FZ200BS has STATUS LED for showing the status of the Device.
(OK Status LED, ERROR Status LED, Condition Status LED)
(11) When you transmit data by using FZ200BS, you need to check the result value for the transmission

FZ200BS Manual VERSION 0.1.0

through the OK/ERROR LED.
(12) FZ200BS has an IEEE ADDRESS and a NETWORK ADDRESS.
64 Bit IEEE ADDRESS is a physical address of FZ200BS.
Every device has its own IEEE ADDRESS and the IEEE ADDRESS is not changeable.
FZ200BS set target devices by using IEEE ADDRESS.
In conclusion, “target device set-up” is an inquiry using IEEE ADDRESS for NETWORK ADDRESS
of its target devices
FZ200BS has a 16 Bit of NETWORK ADDRESS for the Zigbee Network communication.
NETWORK ADDRESS is given when FZ200BS participates in the Zigbee Network.
NETWORK ADDRESS can be changed depending on the Zigbee Network Configuration.
NETWORK ADDRESS cannot be shown unless FZ200BS participates in the Zigbee Network.
FZ200BS performs data transmission by using NETWORK ADDRESS.
(13) If you configure the Zigbee Network and perform data transmission, the result value is shown as
[volume of received data > volume of transmitted data].
FZ200BS on a MAC layer automatically re-transmits data depending on the Zigbee Network
Configuration.
In case of using ACK option, FZ200BS on an application layer automatically re-transmits data
depending on the Zigbee Network Configuration. Thus, Received data could be more than 2
depending on the Zigbee network configuration even if only one data is transmitted.

※ < Routing table update of FZ200BS >
Routing table is assigned to each FZ200BS after the Zigbee Network Configuration.
Below is the Zigbee network status when data is transmitted from Router2 to Router1
to Coordinator.
Data is input into Router2, the Router2 transmits the data to Router1, and then the
Router1 transmits the data to Coordinator. Consequently, the data inputted into
Router2 is transmitted to Coordinator by routing table belonging to Router2 and
Router1
If Router 1 is in abnormal status in the Zigbee Network, Router2 cannot
transmit data, and shows its error status through ERROR port.
When ACK Option is disabled (NACK communication) of FZ200BS, Device is
automatically reset and Router2 creates a new routing table if the Router2
happens to show its error status 5times successively through the error port
because of the abnormal Router1. Multipath set-up is required ahead of the
time to update the routing table.
When the ACK Option of FZ200BS is enabled (ACK communication), users
should control the routing table directly to update it. If the data transmission is successively failed,
users need to reset its target device’s address (same as the existing one) and the Device.

Select each blank as below “Bit/sec: 115200, data Bit: 8, Parity: None, Stop Bit: 1, Flow Control: None”,
and click the OK button. Hyper Terminal is executed.
Hyper Terminal simply does not show any letters inputted.
If you check on “Echo typed characters locally” to get to know what letters are inputted, the
Recommends between FZ200BS and Hyper Terminal are mixed up. Do not check this.
