1 Overview

Z-0001 ZigBee wireless module is designed with TI CC2530F256 that is a true
system-on-chip (SOC) solution for IEEE 802.15.4, ZigBee applications, the module
can be widely used in short distance wireless communication field, with low power
consumption, small volume, strong anti-jamming capability.
Z-0001 ZigBee module which is based on TI CC2530F256 chip running
ZigBee2007/PRO agreement, it has all the features of the ZigBee protocol, which is
different from other types of ZigBee module. Z-0001 launch a self-forming,
power-to-use ZigBee modules, users do not need to understand the complexity of the
ZigBee protocol, all of the ZigBee protocol processing part, within the ZigBee
module automatically, the user only needs to transmit data via the serial port, is
currently on the market the most simple way to use ZigBee applications。

to monitor andtest the module's network connection,this module provides the function
to get the current topology of network.
Firstly, connect the device to the PC via UART.
Secondly, install the Z-Sensor Monitor software.
Here is an example:

Use one coordinator modules and three Router modules,

Connect any one of them to the PC via UART. Open Z-Sensor Monitor and
choose the right UART parameters
