PART 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Safety and EMC Considerations Refer to the Environment/Operating Conditions Section EMC Considerations • Whenever EMC is an issue, always use shielded cables. • Never run signal and power wires in the same conduit. • Use twisted-pair wires for signal connections. • Install Ferrite Bead(s) on signal wires close to the instrument if EMC problems persist. Failure to follow all instructions and warnings may result in injury! 1.
1.3 Description (continued) For example, you can select one End Device that has one internal and one external sensor to monitor temperature and humidity both inside and outside a climate-controlled facility. Each zSeries Coordinator can directly support up to thirty-two (32) End Devices. The Coordinators include AC adapters to operate on any voltage worldwide from 100-240 Vac and 50-60Hz. The Coordinator connects directly to an Ethernet Network or the Internet.
1.3 Description (continued) The following example illustrates how you can hookup zSeries wireless system to your network: The zSeries wireless system consists of a single Coordinator and one or more End Devices. End devices will send data periodically to the Coordinator where it serves as a gateway between the users and the End Devices. The users can access the data through the Coordinator’s web server and provided data acquisition software.

Activity LED: (Red) Blinking: Indicates network activities (receiving or sending packets). 18 Receive LED (blue) while blinking, the Coordinator looks for the clearest channel to communicate.
2.7 DIP Switches 2.7.1 DIP Switch Setup: Device ID (DID) The End Device is shipped with all DIP switches in the "OFF" position. For each End Device you can setup the unique Device ID using DIP switch #1 - 5. The Device ID also determines the Group of the End Device. The Coordinator puts every eight End Devices into a Group so that the system is more manageable. ON OFF You can setup the Network ID (NID) (which is the same as the Coordinator’s) with DIP switches # 6 - 8. Refer to Section 2.7.2.
2.7.2 DIP Switch Setup: Network ID (NID) Each sensor network has a unique Network ID (or NID). For the End Device and the Coordinator setup the Network ID with DIP switches #6 - 8 ON OFF If there is no other IEEE 802.15.4 system, the default NID can be used where all three dip switches are OFF.

2.8 Network Communication Interfaces 2.8.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the Coordinator for network connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over two pairs of wires. One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair is used for transmitting data signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin connector are used.
PART 3 NETWORK CONFIGURATION 3.1 Ethernet (MAC) Address MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the LAN from your computer, a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address.
3.4 DNS DNS, Domain Name System enables individual computers and devices to be recognized over a network based on a specific name instead of an IP address. For example, instead of having to use http://192.168.1.200 (IP address), you would use only http://z03ec or any sixteen character name stored as Host Name under Access Control menu in the zSeries Home Page. The default DNS name for the Coordinator is "z" followed by the last four digits of the MAC address of that particular Coordinator. 1.
3.5.2 Changing TCP/IP Properties on Your Computer Go to your computer’s Control Panel then Network Connections. Pick the network with the proper Ethernet card. Right click and choose Properties Look for Internet Protocol, click on it and press Properties Figure 3.2 Network Connections Setup the IP address (in this case, 192.168.1.1) as shown below and press OK You can access the Coordinator’s web server via any internet browser using IP address of 192.168.1.200.
PART 4 OPERATIONS This Coordinator can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and network setup. It can be configured using a Web browser, like Netscape or Internet Explorer. It can also be configured using the iConnect Configuration Software. If DHCP and DNS servers are configured to exchange information, the connection will be very simple. All you need to do is to enable DHCP on the Coordinator (see Section 3.
4.1 iConnect Software The Coordinator may also be assigned an IP Address by using the iConnect software. a) Download the iConnect software from the website listed in this manual. b) Install iConnect software on a networked PC. This software is compatible with Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, and XP. c) Use iConnect to assign an IP address to the Coordinator and access its web pages for configuration. You can also use any standard web browser to access the zSeries system’s web pages.
4.1 iConnect Software (continued) d) To access the zSeries system for Configuration: Click on the “View Webpage” button, you will access the zSeries home page, refer to Section 4.3 for details. Figure 4.
4.2 Setting a New IP Address over the Network Besides using the iConnect software, you may use the Coordinator’s default IP address to access it and assign a new IP address to it. The Coordinator is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that is in the same range as the Coordinator’s IP address (192.168.1.
4.3 Coordinator’s Configurations and Operations The Blue LED should blink for ~8 seconds and then stay on. It indicates that the Coordinator is searching for the least noisy channel and starts listening there. That’s when the blue LED changes from blinking to solid. Using a web browser, you should be able to view the homepage. • Start your web browser. • From the browser you type http://zxxxx using the last four-digits from the MAC address label located on the device if DHCP and DNS are used.
4.3.1 Power Up Device To verify that an End Device is working before deploying remotely, install batteries and power it on right next to the Coordinator. When the End Device is powered on, it will search for the Coordinator in all 16 channels reserved for IEEE 802.15.4 (channel 11 through 26) by sending request packets. While it’s searching, the blue LED on the End Device blinks every second.
4.3.2 Get Readings from the End Device Once you see the End Device’s LED blinking periodically, it means it is sending data which will appear on the “Readings” page. To view the data in a chart format, you can use the “Chart” page. Click on Readings from the Home Page, the following page will appear. Select the proper Group to view the readings.

Since the End Device is in low power consumption (sleep mode) when idle, a longer update rate will cause less energy usage and prolong the life of the battery.
4.3.9 Access Control This section describes the "Access Control" page of the Web interface. This page allows the users to set up the network and security parameters of the zSeries wireless system. At the initial entrance to the “Access Control” page you may be prompted for the LOGIN Password (see Figure 4.6) prior to an ADMINISTRATOR Password. ACCESS CONTROL Address http://192.168.1.
4.3.9 Access Control (continued) IP Address: The IP (Internet Protocol) address is a 32-bit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Ethernet or the Internet. The Coordinator’s default IP address is 192.168.1.200. The Coordinator’s IP address should be changed to fit user’s networking environment. Consult with your IT department for obtaining an IP address. The DHCP will be enabled in the Coordinator if its IP address is set to 0.0.0.0.
4.5 HTTPget Program (continued) Whenever Terminal Server service (using Port 2000 by default) is required, the # of connections must be set to a value from 1 to 5. The Terminal Server mode is the recommended mode for the most reliable connection when operating with NEWPORT software or with other programs supporting TCP/IP communications.
4.5.2 HTTPget and ARP to Setup Device IP Address Use the iConnect software, which may be downloaded from our website, to do these IP changes whenever possible. Use ARP first to assign the mac address to a static IP address in computer arp table by this command: arp –s 192.168.1.200 00-03-34-00-00-06-b6 Then use the following command to assign new IP to the device: Httpget –r –S "00000000" 192.168.1.200:1 where: “0000000” is admin. password. If the password is wrong, the unit will ignore the new IP.
4.6 ARP Protocol (continued) The following window shows examples of arp commands and responses. • Your computer has an IP address of 192.168.1.118 • The destination computer has an IP address of 192.168.1.96 C:\>ping 192.168.1.96 Pinging 192.168.1.96 with 32 bytes of data: Reply Reply Reply Reply from from from from 192.168.1.96=bytes=32 192.168.1.96=bytes=32 192.168.1.96=bytes=32 192.168.1.96=bytes=32 time=5ms time=3ms time=3ms time=4ms C:\>arp -a 192.168.1.96 Interface: 192.168.1.

Part 5 ENVIRONMENT / OPERATING CONDITIONS End Device/Coordinator are designed to be fixed mounted and operated in a clean and dry environment. Care should be taken to prevent the components of your wireless system from being exposed to moisture, toxic chemicals, extreme cold or hot temperature that are outside the specification listed in this manual. The following is a list of basic good practice you should apply when operating this Wireless System. 1.
5.1 General Deployment Guidelines (continued) 7. Where possible, try to ensure an uninterrupted line-of-sight between nodes. Avoid obscuring objects (e.g. metal pillars, posts, sign) near the antenna. A close object obscures a wider range of solid angle. 8. It is important to understand that the environment may change over time due to new equipment or machinery being installed, building construction, etc.
5.2 With Line-of-Sight When installing your Coordinator it is important to position your device in such a way to optimize the antenna location within what’s known as the “Fresnel Zone”. The Fresnel Zone can be thought of as a football-shaped invisible tunnel between two locations that provides a path for RF signals between your End Device and your Coordinator. COORDINATOR ANTENNA END DEVICE ANTENNA FRESNEL ZONE Figure 5.
5.3 Without Line-of-Sight When line-of-sight is not possible, signal penetrates and is reflected by different objects to reach the destination. Therefore, it is important to learn about how these materials would affect signal propagation. Depending on the thickness, moisture content and angle of incidence, a wall may allow between 1% and 25% of the radio power to pass through. Metal panel or metalized glass window will not allow much radio power to pass through.
5.5 Fine Adjustment in Performance 1. To avoid interference from WiFi / IEEE 802.11, one could consult the figure below to choose the best channel through the Configuration webpage. In all, channels 15, 20, 25 and 26 are not overlapping with any WiFi / IEEE 802.11 bands in the United States while channels 15, 16, 21 and 22 can be used in Europe.

APPENDIX A GLOSSARY User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions: ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long. In an Ethernet local area network, however, addresses for attached devices are 48-bits long.
Appendix B IP Address An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes: • A network ID number identifying a network. • A host ID number identifying a computer on the network. All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C • Class A addresses have 8-bits of network ID and 24-bits of host ID. They can support a large number of hosts, approximately 2 = 16,777,216 computers per network. The IP addresses range in binary from 00000001.xxxxxxxx.
Appendix C IP Netmask IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using them as part of a network ID. The table below shows a default subnet mask for address Classes A, B, and C.
