1. Introduction
Netvox ZB11A1, an infrared radiation (IR) occupancy sensor, acts as an End Device in ZigBee network. It does not
perform permit-join function as a coordinator or a router for other devices to join the network. When ZB11A1
detects movement, it reports the message to the ZigBee network. Users can assign specific task to other devices
based on different report. ZB11A1 is also featured to play a role of the sensor (Zone device) in the ZigBee security
system. When the movement is detected, ZB11A1 will notify the central security unit, CIE (Control and Indicating
Equipment) device, to send commands to a siren device to trigger an alarm.
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 ZB11A1
5-1. Turn On/Turn Off ZB11A1
After powering on, ZB11A1 will enter into the turn-off mode.
To manually turn on ZB11A1, press the Binding Key once.
When ZB11A1 is first time used or after resetting → it will try to join the network.
To manually turn off ZB11A1, press and hold the Binding Key for 15 seconds. The indicator will generate
slow green flash.
It is recommended that having a 10-second interval between turning on and turning off ZB11A1.
5-2. Join the ZigBee Network
After ZB11A1 is turned on, it will search for an existing ZigBee network and send a request to join the
network automatically. While ZB11A1 is under the coverage from a coordinator or a router whose permit-join
feature is enabled, ZB11A1 will be permitted to join the network.
Step1. Enable the permit-join function (valid for 60 seconds) of a coordinator or a router (please refer to
the user manual of the coordinator or the router to enable the permit-join feature).
Step2. Turn on ZB11A1. It will start to search and join the network.
Step3. The indicator will flash green once when it finds out a network to join.
Step4. The indicator will flash green 5 times after it is joined successfully. Otherwise, the indicator will
not flash.
5.3. Enroll in the ZigBee Security System
ZB11A1 is a Zone device in the ZigBee security system. Right after ZB11A1 join the ZigBee network, it will
automatically find out a CIE (Control and Indicating Equipment) device (i.e. Netvox Z201B) and send a
registration request to the CIE device to enroll in the security system. The enrollment has these 3 situations:
A. There is no CIE device or no compatible CIE device in the network → the indicator flashes green
twice.
B. There is a compatible CIE device in the network, but it is failed to enroll → the indicator flashes
green 4 times.
C. The enrollment is completed → the indicator flashes green 6 times.
NOTE: Users had better NOT enroll multiple Zone devices at the same time to prevent registration failure.

5-4. Sleeping Mode
ZB11A1 is designed to go to sleeping mode for power-saving in some situations:
A. While the device is in the network → the sleeping period is 5 minutes; it will wake up every 5
minutes to keep online.
B. When it doesn’t find a network to join → ZB11A1 will go to sleeping mode. It will wake up every 15
minutes to search a network to join.
C. Once ZB11A1 was joined to a network and by any chance the network is no longer existed or the
device is out of the network → ZB11A1 will wake up every 15 minutes to find the network it joined
before.
It never keeps in sleeping mode and continues to find out a network every 15 minutes. This condition would
consume up to 30 times power spending compared to normal-operating status. To prevent this unwanted power
consumption, we recommend that users remove the batteries to power off the device.
5-5. Wake Up ZB11A1
To manually wake up ZB11A1, press the Auxiliary Key once.
When ZB11A1 is in a ZigBee network → it will send out the device data, like IEEE address/Network
address, and the indicator will flash green 5 times.
When ZB11A1 was in a ZigBee network, but by any change it is offline → it will start to rejoin the
ZigBee network.
ZB11A1 will be activated for 2 minutes.
5-6. Battery
ZB11A1 will send a low-power report to the ZigBee network when the operating voltage is lower than 2.1V by
default.
The related data:
Power configuration cluster (ID:0x0001)
Battery voltage attribute (ID:0x0020)
The reporting voltage can be adjusted. There are 4 voltages for choosing: 2.4V/ 2.3V/ 2.2V/ 2.1V.
It is recommended that the minimal reporting internal is longer than 5-minute.
5-7. Infrared Sensor Detection and Report
When infrared sensor detects a movement, ZB11A1 will send the report to the CIE device and go to Occupied
status. The indicator will flash red once. In Occupied condition, ZB11A1 will detect the further movement

9
every 84 seconds (120 * 70%) by default. Until no additional movement is detected within the period of 120
seconds, ZB11A1 will go to Unoccupied condition and send the report to ZigBee network.
After ZB11A1 joins the ZigBee network, the infrared sensor will not be active within 1 minute.
Under the circumstances ZB11A1 is not in a ZigBee network, it will start to join a network after the
ZB11A1 detects a movement.
Users could change the detecting sensitivity by adjusting the Sensor Sensitivity Adjuster.
Clockwise adjustment → Higher sensitivity
The default sensitivity is medium sensitivity as the picture below.
5-8. Tamper Alarm
ZB11A1 features tamper alarm. When the cover is opened, ZB11A1 will notify the central security unit, CIE
(Control and Indicating Equipment) device, to send a command to a Warning Device.
5-9. Restore to Factory Setting
To restore it to factory setting, please follow the steps:
Step1. Press and hold the Auxiliary Key for 10 seconds.
Step2. After the indicator shows fast green flashes, release the button to complete the restore.
