ZigBee Light Link Development Kit Quick Start Guide

Opening the box and setting up a ZLL network in 3 simple steps

1. Kit Contents

 3 x Zlight2 LED boards

 1 x Remote control

 3 x micro-USB cables

 Documentation

2. Regulatory Information

The Zlight2 boards and the Remote control are FCC-

and IC certified and are tested/compliant with

ETSI/R&TTE over temperature from 0 to +35°C. The

Remote control has an on-board inverted F PCB

antenna while the Zlight2 has an on-board half wave

dipole PCB antenna.

FCC/IC Regulatory Compliance

FCC Part 15 Class A Compliant

IC ICES-003 Class A Compliant

Caution! The kit contains ESD sensitive

components. Handle with care to prevent

permanent damage.

3. Purpose of the Kit

The CC2531 ZigBee Light Link (ZLL) development

kit is intended for customers who would like to

evaluate ZLL lighting control for LED light products,

and develop simple applications and demonstrators

based on this standard.

The kit contains everything needed to set up a ZLL

network and control the lights individually or as a

group. It’s also possible to extend the kit with more

HW to allow cloud based control solutions such as

Ninja blocks (http://www.ninjablocks.com/).

Information about this can be found by following the

links supplied at the end of the document.

4. Power Options

The Zlight2 boards are powered through the

USB connector. It is recommended that they

are powered from a dedicated USB power

supply capable of supplying at least 800mA

and max 5.5V.

The Remote control is powered by a 3V

CR2025 battery (included). Do not use other

battery types.

5. Powering the Boards (Step 1)

 Connect the Zlight2 boards to your USB power

supply using the supplied cables.

 Insert the CR2025 battery into the remote control

Do not leave the Zlight2 boards powered when

not in use or unattended.

6. Starting the Network (Step 2)

In ZLL, the process of pairing a new lamp with a

remote control is called touch linking.

Touch link the first Zlight2 board by holding the

remote control close and simultaneously pressing

the “on” and “off” buttons. Release both buttons.

After a few seconds, the Zlight2 will flash, and the

remote control will give a short beep.(continued)

Starting the Network (cont.)

Continue by Touch linking the remaining 2

Zlight2 boards, one at a time. Note that if

the two buttons are pressed with too much

time difference, the “on” or “off” command

will be sent to the previously touch linked

Zlight2 instead of initiating a new Touch

link command. Try again.

Touch link the Zlight2 boards by holding

the remote control close and

simultaneously pressing the “on” and

“off” buttons

7. Operating the Zlight2 (Step 3)

Caution! To minimize the risk of fire or

equipment damage, make sure that

ambient temperature air is allowed to

circulate freely around the Zlight2 board

when operating. Avoid touching

components during operation if symbolized as hot. A

thermal shutdown routine is implemented in the

included firmware running on the lights. Always make

sure that this routine is implemented if you flash your

own firmware. The easiest way to do that is to base it

on ZStack-Lighting-1.0.2 or later releases from Texas

Instruments.

Caution! DO NOT STARE DIRECTLY INTO LED

LIGHT SOURCE. Intense light sources

have a high secondary exposure

potential due to their blinding effect. A

temporary reduction in visual acuity and

afterimages can occur, leading to

irritation, annoyance, visual impairment, and even

accidents, depending on the situation. Always

consider the use of light filtering/darkening protective

eyewear and be fully aware of surrounding laboratory

type set-ups when viewing intense light sources to

minimize/eliminate such risks in order to avoid

accidents related to temporary blindness.

Operating the Zlight2 (cont.)

RISK GROUP 2

CAUTION

Possible hazardous optical

radiation emitted from this product.

Do not stare at operating lamp.

Maybe harmful to eyes.

 Do not stare at operating LEDs –

o (Risk Group 1 (RG1) @ 0.9m)

 Per IEC 62471 ed 1.0: 2006-07

(“Photobiological Safety of Lamps and Lamp

Systems”) this product has been classified in

Risk Group 2. Products classified as Risk

Group 2 do not pose a hazard due to the

aversion response to very bright light

sources or due to thermal discomfort. It

should be noted that INTENTIONALLY

staring at the lamp for extended lengths of

time from short distances could lead to a

potential risk of eye damage due to a retinal

blue-light hazard. In order to reduce the

potential of exposure to a retinal blue-light

hazard, the operator must avoid any direct

view of the LEDs while in operation, from a

distance of 0.9m, or closer.
