Product Description
The Zigbee Power Module provides the Zigbee routing services needed to form a full
Zigbee Mesh Network. It also functions as a power switch, and can sense when a load is
applied (teapot function). It has a battery backup providing at least 2 hours of standby
power, to allow the Zigbee network to continue to operate during power outages.
Features
- Zigbee Router functionality for robust Mesh Networking
- Multifunction button for
o manual relay activation
o zigbee configuration control
o button’s backlight LED indicates zigbee activity
- Bicolor status LED
o load status
o backup battery status
- Battery engage switch for storage/transportation
- 3-prong grounded connection
- buzzer to warn of power failure
Installation
- Please familiarize yourself with the concepts of Zigbee Networking with the
“Understanding Sensor Networking” paper.
- The network Coordinator must be set up before any Routers including this Power
Module.
- While holding down the Multifunction button (clear plastic button on top), use a
pen to activate the battery with the battery engage button. The unit will start
beeping. (Holding down the Multifunction button clears out the Associated
Device table so the module is ready for a new network configuration)
- Now you can plug the module into an appropriate AC outlet. The unit will take a
few seconds to calibrate and join the Zigbee network.
- Orient the antenna the same direction as the Coordinator antenna (usually this is
vertical).
- You may plug in whatever load you want to control/monitor, within the power
limits described in this manual.
Commissioning
- Once all routers are installed then you will start adding any sensors (such as the
Motion Sensor).
- Use the Multifunction button to control how the sensors “Join” the network. You
will notice that when you press the button the blue LED will alternately flash, or
stop flashing. When the LED is flashing, then sensors are prohibited from
