etting up the Z311C and network
When Z311C is powered up, it will search for an existing network and will ask to join the
network of the same channel automatically. If it is within a coordinator or other router
coverage area with
permit-join feature is open,
Z311C is permitted to join. Normally
there is 1 minute of permit-join period.
Network association operation:
Step 1: Make sure you have open up permit-join function (valid for 60 seconds) of a
coordinator or a router.
Step 2: Now turn on the Z311C device (refer to chapter
Turn it on
of this manual
)
The device will start to search for the network within reach. If there is a network available
for join, the green indicator will flash once.
Step 3: The green indicator will
flash 5 times upon join successful.
Otherwise the
indicator will not flash. The device will enter to sleep mode after 15 seconds of attempt to
join. To wake up the device for another join attempt, please press any key.

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 Z311C 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 Z311C is permitted to join
when it searched the network channel.
b. On how to enable permit-join feature please refer to the coordinator or the router user
