2. ZigBee Smart Home Demonstration
The chapter describes how to use the contents of the JN517x-DK005 Development
Kit to set up and run the pre-loaded ZigBee Smart Home Demonstration. The
demonstration is concerned with the control of a light in a ‘Smart Home’ and has the
following features:
ZigBee wireless network:
This network contains the light to be controlled, as
well as a dimmer switch that can be used to wirelessly control the light.
‘Internet of Things’ (IoT) Gateway:
This device connects the ZigBee wireless
network to the IP domain, allowing the light to be controlled from a web browser
on a PC.
NFC commissioning:
The formation of the ZigBee wireless network is
simplified by means of NFC commissioning, which allows a node to be joined to
the network through the simple action of an NFC tap.
2.1 Demo System Overview
This ZigBee Smart Home Demonstration is based on a ZigBee WPAN containing a
light node (Dimmable Light) that can be controlled as follows:
From within the WPAN using the buttons on a controller node (Dimmer Switch)
From a web browser on a PC located in a Wi-Fi LAN that is connected via an
IoT Gateway to the WPAN
The demonstration system is illustrated in
Note 1:
