Tom in the Zig-
Bee network
Do you want to install Tom with
batteries? That is also possible. Tom is
set to a power saving “sleep” mode, so
that less power is used. Tom will behave
like a “ZigBee End Device” (ZED) in the
network.

ZigBee network
Tom works well together with batteries
or an USB adapter. Depending on which
one you choose, Tom will automatically
adapt its behaviour when joining a new
network.
If you install Tom with an USB adapter,
Tom is permanently powered. Tom will
behave like a “ZigBee Router” (ZR) in the
network. As such Tom has the
advantage that it is always reachable for
other ZigBee modules. In addition, Tom
will improve the quality of the ZigBee
network.
