ProBee-ZE10 User Guide Rev.1.5

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 configure the ZE10 to permit joining when the digital input GPIO0 is active. The AT

command to enable this functionality is as follows:

AT+GPIO0=5 or AT+IO0=5

When the ZE10 detects falling edge of the GPIO0, the ZE10 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 255.

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 ZE10 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 ZE10 as a ZigBee router, please follow the steps below.

Configure the ZE10 node type as a router.

Optionally, select the channel mask. Otherwise, the ZE10 will use the default channel mask.

Optionally, set up the PAN ID and/or the extended PAN ID. Otherwise, the ZE10 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 ZE10 module 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
