Smart Remote Control - Installation Coordinator Commissioning Run

The ZigBee Coordinator is the core of the entire network. It selects a channel and network identifier, establishes a network, and manages and accesses the added nodes to maintain the entire wireless network. In the same ZigBee network, only one coordinator is allowed to work, of course, it is also an indispensable device.

Connect the coordinator to the PC through the coordinator cable. If the system does not recognize the external device, install the driver.

Open the switch on the side of the coordinator, let the coordinator start working, open the wireless sensor network experimental platform software, in the "serial number" drop-down list box, select the connection port displayed in the PC device manager.

Click the "OPEN" button to establish communication with the coordinator.

Click the "Read" button in the "Network Parameter Settings" option group. The software interface will display the Coordinator's MAC address, PANID, Channel and other network parameters. You can modify it and click the "Write" button to save it.

XML file configuration: Use Notepad to open the “WirelessSensorNetworkConfig.xml” file in the “Wireless Sensor Network Experiment Platform Software” folder, modify the serial port number in the file, and the MAC address of each node board, and save and exit.

After the coordinator is connected to the computer, turn on the power switch on the node board. If the previous configuration is correct, it can be seen on the LCD screen of the coordinator that the corresponding hollow square becomes solid, which proves that the wireless network between the coordinator and the node has been connected.

Note: The commands in this functional area are all hexadecimal numbers. For detailed data format, please refer to “ZigBee V25 Manual Data Format of Wireless Sensor Network”.

Under the premise of the correct networking of the system, switch to the "device control" tab. In the device bar, you can see each node device that joins the network, select the corresponding device, and draw the curve of the corresponding sensor data at the bottom of the page. .

Click the corresponding button, the upper opportunity to send the corresponding command to each device and control the device.

At this point, select "Instruction Flow" page will display the command data of all commands, select the check box in front of the corresponding command, click the "output answer results" button, you can save the corresponding instruction data.

"Wireless sensor network experimental platform software" can not only send commands via buttons, but also use manual input commands to send data commands to the node board.
