1 IntroductionofZigBee
ZigBee is a specification for a suite of high level communication protocols
using small, low-power digital radios based on an IEEE 802.15.4 standard for
personal area networks. ZigBee devices are often used in mesh network form to
transmit data over longer distances, passing data through intermediate devices
to reach more distant ones. This allows ZigBee networks to be formed ad-hoc,
with no centralized control or high-power transmitter/receiver able to reach all of
the devices. Any ZigBee device can be tasked with running the network.
ZigBee is targeted at applications that require a low data rate, long battery
life, and secure networking. ZigBee has a defined rate of 250 kbit/s, best suited
for periodic or intermittent data or a single signal transmission from a sensor or
input device. Applications include wireless light switches, electrical meters with
in-home-displays, traffic management systems, and other consumer and
industrial equipment that requires short-range wireless transfer of data at
relatively low rates. The technology defined by the ZigBee specification is
intended to be simpler and less expensive than other WPANs.

2 IntroductionofZT‐2510
The Basis of ZT-2510 Series Product
The ZT-2510 series module is small-sized wireless ZigBee repeater based on
the IEEE802.15.4 standard. It supports network routing and signal relay
transmission function in a personal area ZigBee network. The typical
transmission of ICP DAS ZT series ZigBee products is 700 meters (LOS, line of
sight), with a transmission frequency range of between 2.405 GHz and 2.48 GHz,
separated into 5 MHz sectors, providing 16 channels and 16384 PAN IDs.
ZT-2000 series is a long distance wireless repeater and you are able to use it to
extend the transmission range and improve the quality of wireless signal.
ZT-2000 series products are specification for a suite of high level
communication protocols using small, low-power digital radios module, which
are fitted the ZigBee 2007 (ZigBee Pro) of ZigBee Alliance. In the ZigBee
network, it is only allowed one ZigBee Host and called “ZigBee Coordinator”,
ZT-2550/ZT-2570 series products, are used to initialize and manager the routing.
In addition, One ZigBee network are able to manager 255 ZigBee router and
responsible for receiving or bypassing data from parent or child node. In ICP DAS
products, the ZT-2551, ZT-2571, ZT-2000 I/O and ZT-2510 are the ZigBee
routers.
The Benefits of ZT-255x Series Product
A Windows compatible GUI configuration utility is available. The utility allows
users to set different configurations based on the type of application, together
with several of required ZigBee variables such as Pan ID. The friendly user
interface is also helping user be familiar with ZT-2000 series.

4.1 Introductionofconfigurations
A. “Pan ID” 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)
B. “Node ID” 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)
C. “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
※ In addition, the RF channels 0x04, 0x09, 0x0E and 0x0F are recommended
because they are not covered with the frequency of Wi-Fi.
