ZigBee Network Setup
ZigBee Device Guideline
ZigBee is a wireless communication protocol that is reliable and has low power consumption and high transmission efficiency. Based on
IEEE802.15.4 standard, ZigBee allows a large amount of devices to be included in a network and coordinated for data exchange and signal
transmission.
Due to the fundamental structure of ZigBee network, ZigBee device will actively seek and join network after powering on. Since performing
a task in connecting network may consume some power, it is required to follow the instructions to avoid draining battery of a ZigBee device.
• Ensure your ZigBee network router or coordinator is powered on before inserting battery into the ZigBee device.
• Ensure the ZigBee network router or coordinator is powered on and within range while a ZigBee device is in use.
• Do not remove a ZigBee device from the ZigBee network router or coordinator without removing the battery from a ZigBee device.
Joining the ZigBee Network
As a ZigBee device, the Room Sensor needs to join a ZigBee network to transmit temperature and humidity signal.
Please follow the steps bellow to join the Room Sensor into the ZigBee network.
1. Insert the batteries into the battery compartment to power on the Room Sensor.
2. After powering up, press and hold the Function button for 10 seconds, then release it to join the network. Please make sure the
permit-join feature on the router or coordinator of your ZigBee network is enabled.
3. If the Room Sensor successfully joins a ZigBee network, the ZigBee network connectivity icon will be displayed on the LCD
4. After joining the ZigBee network, the Room Sensor will be registered in the network automatically. Please check your ZigBee coordinator,
system control panel or CIE (Control and Indicating Equipment) to confirm if joining and registration is successful.
5. After joining network and registration is successful, if the Room Sensor loses connection with the Control Panel or the Control Panel is
powered down, the ZigBee network connectivity icon on the LCD on the Room Sensor will go off in 1 or 2 minutes time.
6. If network joining and registration is unsuccessful, the ZigBee network connectivity icon will not be displayed. Please check your
ZigBee network coordinator, control panel or CIE setting to ensure the permit-join function is available, and then use the Factory
Reset function below to join the ZigBee network.
Removing Device from ZigBee Network (Factory Reset)
To remove the Room Sensor from current ZigBee network, the device must be put to Factory Reset to complete device removal. Factory
Reset function will clear the device of its stored setting information and prompt the Room Sensor to search for new ZigBee network.
Before removing device, make sure the Room Sensor is within current ZigBee network signal range
1. Press and hold the function button for 10 seconds, then release the button to reset Room Sensor.
2. Upon reset, the Room Sensor will clear current ZigBee network setting and transmit signal to ZigBee coordinator to remove itself from
current ZigBee network. It will then actively search for available ZigBee network again and join the network automatically.
