ProBee-ZS10 User Guide Rev.1.1
The user can permit joining for a moment at need. The AT command to permit joining is
AT+PERMIT= n or AT+PJ=n
Where n is the duration to permit in seconds ranging 1~254 seconds.
The user can also use the function button to permit joining. When the button pressed, the ZS10 permits
joining for the duration that is configured in S-register 22 (S22). The AT command to change the duration
is as follows:
ATS22=n
Where n is the duration to permit in seconds ranging 1~254 seconds. Default is 60.
S22 value determines the time that the device will allow other devices to join to it. If set to 255, the device
will always permit other nodes joining. If the user reboots the coordinator (or a router), the device allows
other nodes to join the network for the period defined by S-register 22.
Note: When a device that has joined a network reboots, the device is able to join the network regardless
of permitting. But, after the device has joined other network, rejoining the previous network should be
permitted by the coordinator or a router.
3.2
Setting up ZS10 as a Router
A router is a full-function routing device that relays messages and can act as a parent to other nodes.
These devices must be always powered on.
To configure the ZS10 as a ZigBee router, please follow the steps below.
Configure the ZS10 node type as a router.
Optionally, select the channel mask. Otherwise, the ZS10 will use the default channel mask.
Optionally, set up the PAN ID and/or the extended PAN ID. Otherwise, the ZS10 will scan and join
the ZigBee network found automatically.
Permit joining when other router or end device tries to join the ZigBee network.
3.2.1
Node Type Selection for Router
The ZS10 adapter can be configured as a ZigBee router by the AT command as below:
AT+NODETYPE=n or AT+NT=n
Where n is 0 = none, 1 = coordinator, 2 = router, 3 = end-device, 4 = sleepy end-device
After the operation mode is selected, ATZ command should be performed to reset the unit to have the
change applied.
