3 Introduction of configurations
Overview of the ZT-USB Series Configurations Options/Parameters
1. “Pan I ” is the group identity of a ZigBee network, and must be the same if
they are in the same ZigBee network.
Valid values range from 0x0000 to 0x3FFF)
2. “Node I ” is the identity of the ZigBee module.
The identity number must be unique if it is in the same ZigBee network as
other ZigBee module. Valid values range from 0x0001 to 0xFFF7 for a
ZigBee Router, but is fixed to 0x0000 for a ZigBee Coordinator)
3. “RF Channel” indicates the radio frequency channel, and must be set to the
same channel if the module is in the same ZigBee network as other ZigBee
modules.
Channel 0x00 0x01 …… 0x0F
Frequency MHz)
2405 2410 …… 2480
Note:
In addition, the RF channels 0x04, 0x09, 0x0E or 0x0F are recommended because
they do not overlap with frequencies i-Fi.

4. “RF Power” denotes the wireless transmit power value.
Code Note

5. “Baud Rate and ata Format” serial port settings are supported by
ZT-USB Series.

115200 Default) bps
6. Communication Speed The Interval Time of Sending Broadcast Frame):
The data payload of ZT-2000 and ZT-USB series modules is 79 bytes. Once
the data is more than 79 bytes, it will be divided into several packets. This
parameter is used to decide the interval time of sending broadcast frame in
order to prevent the network crashes. Please fill in the number of ZT-2000
slaves nearby the ZigBee Coordinator. More information is in the user
manual.

7. ata Transmission
The above schematic diagram is showing ZT-USB series application mode,
and it always transmits data to the remote device via broadcasting.
Module Frame Type Note
ZT-USBC
Broadcast Data will be sent to all ZigBee slaves
[Eg1] When ZT-USBC (ZigBee Host) sends “DATA_01” via broadcasting frame,
→ Both of the ZigBee s ave 0x0001 and 0x0002 wi receive the “DATA_01”.
※Broadcasting type frame, data wi be sent to every ZigBee s aves in the same

4 Configuring ZigBee Setting
1. Launch the “ZT Configuration Utility” and click the [ZT Series] button
2. Click the [Serial Port] icon and then select the COM Port number.
3. After selecting the COM Port number, a list of model numbers will be
displayed. Select the name of the module that you want to configure. After
clicking the button, the utility will begin checking the connection.
4. Once a connection is established, select either the [Default] or the [Wizard]

function from the settings mode page.
5. Whether you select either the [Default] or the [Wizard] option for
performing configuration, both are used to configure the Pan ID, Node ID,
RF Channel, RF Power, Baud rate, Data Format, Application Mode and so the
relevant parameters.
6. Once the module configuration has been completed, the message “The
Configuration was successful” will be displayed.

5 Testing Communications
U Method (1)
Connect both the ZT-USBC and ZT-2551 to the Host PC via the USB and
RS-232. You may need to use two serial port tools to simulate the data
transmission.
Method (2)：
Use the DCON Utility on the Host PC to search for ZT-2000 series I/O modules.
If there any devices are found, it means that the configuration is correct.
