Setting up a network
Overview
The NXR-ZGW-PRO and NXR-ZRP-PRO constitute the full Master-to-Device control solution via a ZigBee
Pro wireless personal area network (PAN) using a mesh topology A variety of individual devices that can be
controlled or be the source of input to the system are supported.
This diagram in FIG. 7 shows MIO-R3 and MIO-R4 remotes connecting to a network via a NXR-ZGW
gateway and multiple NXR-ZRP repeaters.
ZigBee networks utilize a mesh topology, in that devices may interconnect, known as
roaming
, with different
ZigBee transceivers in an effort to get the best possible signal. The transceivers are known as
parents
. A
ZigBee network may contain at most one parent device that acts as a Coordinator.

When using ZigBee Pro firmware for a new or existing ZigBee network, you should
ensure that the network’s Master is upgraded to firmware version 3.41.422 or later.
