5.2 Ethernet ZB Interface

Read the requirements before installing the Ethernet ZB Interface.

Requirements

• Load the Zoolkit software application and the Control System IP Utility on the

PC. The software setup programs can be freely downloaded from the CIS Web

site:

http://www.clipsal.com/cis/ On the Technical page, select Downloads.

• A power outlet is required for the power supply.

• There must be a working ZigBee network that the interface unit can join. The

typical range limit for reliable connectivity is 20 metres.

Follow these steps when installing the Ethernet ZB Interface.

1. Start the Zoolkit software application on a PC that is on the Ethernet network

where the Ethernet ZB interface will be installed.

2. Connect a Cat.5e network cable from the Ethernet router or switch to network

connector on the Ethernet ZB interface unit. A cable is provided with the unit.

Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4.

3. Connect the power supply’s cable end to the jack on the Ethernet ZB interface

unit, and then plug the power supply into a nearby power outlet.

The Power indicator should be on and the ZigBee status LED should be in the

orange - continuous state. There should also be activity on the Ethernet LED .

4. Make certain that only one local ZigBee network is available for the interface unit

to join. Make sure that the network is within range and is currently operational.

5. Set the ZigBee network in its setup mode so that the interface unit can join.

6. Press and release the Setup button. This causes the interface unit to attempt to

join the ZigBee network using E-mode.

The ZigBee status LED should be in an orange -ﬂashing state and then switch to

the green - continuous state.

7. After the interface unit is connected to the ZigBee network, you can return the

network to normal operation. The ZigBee status LED should turn off to show that

the interface unit is connected to an active ZigBee network.

8. Use the Control System IP Utility to conﬁgure the IP address of the Ethernet ZB

Interface unit on the local network (VLAN).

9. Use the Zoolkit wizard to ﬁnd the Ethernet ZB interface unit and to identify

devices on the ZigBee network. Refer to Zoolkit help ﬁles and tutorials for more

information .
