Introduction
ZB11C is a motion detector for triggering a remote target device wirelessly. It is a motion
detection for intrusion alarm system and can also work as an on/off control lighting switch
and a temperature sensor. When the Infrared detects movement, it sends the message to
the network for specific task.
In ZigBee network ZB11C device act as an end-device node which does not permit any
device to join through it. It enters to sleep mode when not triggered by movement to save
power. When triggered by movement it sends message and status notification to the
network for specific application.
What is ZigBee?
ZigBee is a short range wireless transmission technology which defined for a minimum
complexity, low power consumption, low data rate, cost effective wireless solution. ZigBee
lies in between wireless markup technology and Bluetooth. ZigBee is based on
IEEE802.15.4 standard, the mutual co-ordination between thousands of sensors to
exchange data. Sensor to sensor or node-to-node communication is achieved through
relays of control data between devices with only a fraction of energy use which denoted
for highly transmission efficiency.
Note: Wireless communication, in some real use cases, can be limited by the signal
blockage. Please consult your service provider or place of purchase.

Setting up the ZB11C and network
To allow ZB11C to function, it must first join to a ZigBee network. When it is given
powered it will automatically start searching for an existed network. So before you give
power to ZB11C make sure it is within the wireless coverage distance (~70 meters or less)
and make sure first you have the permit-join feature enabled either on a coordinator or
a router device in the network so that ZB11C will join to the network through it; then give
power to ZB11C and it will join into the network by itself.
*On how to enable permit-join please refer to the router or coordinator device user manual
Operation:
Step 1: enable permit-join function (valid for 60 seconds)on either a coordinator or a
router device.
Step 2: give power to ZB11C device so it can start search for a network to join.
Step 3: at this time if a network is found it will join automatically. The network indicator
on the ZB11C will flash 5 times in green if successful otherwise the indicator
stays dark.
Repeat the process if join attempt failed. ZB11C is an end-device which goes to sleep. To
wake up the device for another join attempt, please reload the battery. Make sure that the
permit-join of a router or coordinator is again enabled.
For advance user: The device supports network commissioning joining
method.
Setting Up Summary
(1) Join it into the existed network.
(2) Featuring the device by pairing between two or more
devices or zone registration for security system
(3) How to use it
Step 1. Startup and Network Association
Notes:
a. By default the ZigBee network does not allow any devices to join, this is done this way
to prevent any potential unauthorized device join attempt. Make sure ZB11C is within
the coverage area. You must first enable permit join feature on a router or a
coordinator already in the network so that the new device like ZB11C is permitted to
join when the channel is automatically searched.
b. On how to enable permit-join feature please refer to the coordinator or the router user
manual.

Most read Warning: Possible battery drainage
When the device was once joined to a network and by any chance the
network is no longer present or it is out of network - it will wake up
every 15 minutes to find the network it joined before. It never goes to
deep sleep but continues to find its network every 15 minutes. This
scenario can consume up to 50 times power more than normal
operation. To avoid this unwanted power consumption, you need to
manually switch off the sensors when network is off.

Feature Description
Before we move on to the next step there are several things to know. This will help you
in the next step as to which sub-steps you will need and why you need them.
As mentioned earlier in the manual, ZB11C comes with 3 functions, such as Zone, On/Off and
temperature reading.
Zone, for example, will feature the device to work as a zone sensor for the security system to notify
the security system or called CIE security system device -Control & Indication Equipment in the
network to trigger a siren or a silent alarm. This device will require security zone registration
(enrollment ).
On/Off,for example, will feature the device to work as a motion-triggered light or power switch. In
many cases it is used for door or stairway lighting application. This device will require device
pairing.
Temperature reading, for example, will feature the device to work as a temperature reporting
device. It reports the temperature reading to a paired display device. This device will require
device pairing or device matching.

Automatic zone registration
ZB11C contains zone feature to work with the security system in the network. After it has
joined to the network, the device needs to register itself to the security system called CIE
(Control and Indicating Equipment). The registration is an automatic process followed by
network join. All you need is to observe whether it has successfully registered.
Observing registration to the CIE:
(1) If CIE device does not exist in the network the LED indicator flashes twice in green.
(2) If CIE device is found and successfully enrolled, it flashes 6 times otherwise flashes
4 times meaning enrollment failed. Trigger the device by motion will force it to
re-enroll. The siren will only sound when it has truly enrolled. Refer to View
enrolled zone device table section at the end of this manual.
Device pairing (Binding)
Operation:
Step 1: Operate binding on the power outlet device (refer to its own user manual).
Step 2: Within 5 seconds short press on the binding key (once for motion detector
binding, twice for lighting control binding, 3 times for temperature report binding)
If pairing successful the green LED indicator flashes 5 times otherwise flashes
10 times quickly.
Unbinding operation:Unbinding procedure is exactly the same as binding operation.
The device will reverse paired.
Step 2. Featuring the device by pairing
Note
It is a good practice that there should have only one CIE device in a given network at
the time when ZB11C is joining into the network. If you happen to have two or more
CIE devices present in the network, ZB11C will somehow confused as which to
enroll. This may or may not cause enrollment rejection. If this happens right after
ZB11C joined to the network, please power off those CIE devices and leave only one
in the network, then power ZB11C on again to allow it to register to the intended CIE.
Or for some reason you should leave the CIE on which you do not wish to enroll
ZB11C into, simply enroll it to this one first and then apply CIE reassignment. Refer
to Assigning ZB11C to a preferred CIE system section.

Security System
At the time that the device sends alert message to the registered CIE device in the
network while the security system is at armed status, the siren device in the network
will receive a warning message to trigger.
There is another condition which ZB11C will be inactive in motion detection reporting.
This is done to prevent too sensitive to motion.
The device will report when motion is detected then it will appear to be inactive for a
period of 84 seconds. Any motion detected by the IR will not be reported. After the
inactive period elapsed the ZB11C will be then back to its motion detection reporting. If
no more movement is dectected for a period of 120 seconds, the device will send a
message to deactivate the alarm.
Light control
According to the surrounding light intensity from the internal light sensor, when the
movement is detected the device sends ON command to the paired power outlet or
power switch devices. The 120 seconds countdown timer will start followed by a turn
ON command sent.
The light sensor sensitivity (threshold) can be adjusted to fit your need. From the light
sensitivity adjustor turn clock-wise for lower sensitivity and anti-clockwise for higher
sensitivity. For example, if you would like the light to be turned ON at the lowest
surrounding light intensity when motion is detected, then turn the adjustor
anticlock-wise.
To avoid frequent or unstable light switching, ZB11C stays inactive to movement for a
period of 84 seconds by factory default. Any movement detected within this period the
countdown timer will not be reported. If no movement were detected and the 120s
period were elapsed, ZB11C will switch off the paired power outlets.
How to use ZB11C in the network
ZB11C takes one minute to warm up right after it joined to the network. The
device will be inactive during the warm up period and will not respond to motion.
The light control will stay functional regardless whether the security system is in
armed/disarmed mode or whether the ZB11C is registered to the security system or not.

Temperature reporting
Again as mention earlier, the sensor sends the current temperature data to the
coordinator of the network once every 3 minutes by default if not pairing settings were
done. The device sends captured temperature data to paired machine which installed
ZiG-BUTLER or any other ZigBee enabled in-home display device. For more details
about temperature reporting configuration, please refer to temperature reporting on
chatper ZiG-BUTLER of this manual.
Device Tampering
ZB11C comes with tampering alarm. Any attempt of unauthorized tampering such as
removing the device cover, the device sends alarm messages to the security system (CIE
device) to set off the siren in the network.
Overcoming a sleeping device
The ZB11C is featured to be an end device and is designed to enter temporal sleep after
idle to save battery power. Sometimes during system setup you would want to retrieve
information (i.e. IEEE address, short address) from the device so you need to press keys
to allow the device to enter wake mode to stay connected.
Operation: Press auxiliary key once, the green indicator will give 5 short flashes. The
device will be active and will broadcast its short address and its device physical IEEE
address.
Low Battery Notification
When ZB11C uses battery to power, the device will not work if the battery is bellow
3.3Vdc.
The green indicator will flash once and the device will broadcast low battery message to
the network notifying the user for battery replacement.
Restore to factory setting
ZB11C is capable of storing and saving includes network routing information. If you wish
to remove ZB11C from an exited network, you would need to clear the saved routing and

other information to join to a new network by simply reset the device to restore to the
factory setting.
Operation:
Hold press the auxiliary key for 10 seconds until the gren indicator flashes quickly
which indicating factory restored setting has achieved. And then the device will be
turned off automatically.
Affirming detection zone
During motion sensor installation, you would want to be sure how far and wide does
ZB11C actually detect especially for security system installation.
Operation: To force the device to run in the zone detection mode, hold press the auxiliary
key for 3s , release when indicator flashes once in green. Zone detection mode will stay
active for 10 minutes.
Indication:
When motion detected, red indicator will light up if surrounding conditon of light switching
is met, otherwise red indicator will flash several times.
No LED indication indicates no motion is been detected.
To exit from zone detection mode before 10 minutes elapse, short press auxiliary key
once.

ZiG-BUTLER
During device installation, you will go though permit join and device pairing. Most of
the time you need to physically access to a device that is out of your reach. It
becomes handy when you can program through software on a PC wirelessly. Our
ZiG-BUTLER allows you to do that. Of course, any other 3rd party ZigBee enabled
software is also applicable.
ZiG-BUTLER software is to be installed on a PC or a server. The system needs a
Z103 USB dongle or a ZigBee to PC hardware interface such as a Z202 gateway to
communicate with ZigBee network.
