Introduction
Offer Description
Overview
The Harmony XB5R offer using Harmony Hub allows more flexibility and simplicity in the
installation. Wireless transmitters technology reduces the wiring and the cost of installation.
Harmony Hub converts radio frequency inputs into various communication protocols and operates
as intermediate equipment between a transmitter and a PLC or industrial PCs (IT/OT box) that
support Modbus TCP protocols.
Harmony Hub can be used with transmitters such as XB4R and XB5R wireless and batteryless
push-buttons, rope pull switch, mushroom head push-buttons, emergency stop monitoring, XCKW
and XCMW wireless and batteryless limit switches, temperature sensors, and energy sensors.
It has a wide range of industrial and building applications. For example, in packing lines, automatic
doors in logistic centers, manufacturing of vehicles in automotive industries, for bag filling in
cement industries, and for efficient use of power in office lighting.
Harmony Hub can also control output especially receivers and communicate with a tower light for
example to make call for action. This use case will help the operator visually for the status of his
requested action.

Basic Architecture with PLC
The following figure shows the transmission between transmitters and a ZBRN1 Harmony Hub:
NOTE: You can associate 1 Harmony Hub with up to 60 transmitters. Each transmitter has a
unique ID (for example, 030079B1).
PowerTag energy monitoring sensor must be placed in a metal cabinet at a maximum distance of
3 meters to Harmony Hub.
IT/OT Architecture
Harmony Hub provides network connectivity openness by operating as intermediate equipment
between the wireless devices and PLCs (Programmable Logic Controller) or all industrial PCs
(IT/OT box) that support Modbus TCP protocols.
Harmony Hub is providing an easy way to digitalize your production line to improve operation
efficiency by using a non-intrusive wireless system easy to connect to your IT system.
Harmony Hub collect physical signals from an operator interface or secondary sensing to generate
computed data information for computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) tools and
operation management tools.

Call To Action
Overview
Harmony Hub can communicate with up to 60 ZBRRH receivers.
If you connect a tower light to the ZBRRH receiver, you can make a call to action function.
Call to action:
When a problem occurs on the machine, the operator just pushes its wireless pushbutton.
The Harmony Hub can then control a device to solve the problem or at least to display it with a
tower light.
The following figure shows the transmission between a ZBRN• Harmony Hub and ZBRRH receiver
to command, for example, a tower light:
