Property reference

	Properties
	Device Name
String of characters used to allow the Zigbee node to use the name addressing mode of operation. Can be left blank if name addressing is not being used.
	Zigbee Mode
Specifies the functionality of the Zigbee node. Coordinator - Must be used with a Coordinator Zigbee E-Block EB051C, Responsible for starting the network and assigning addresses. Router - Must be used with a Router / End Node E-Block EB051R, Responsible for forwarding / repeating packets on the network. End Device - Must be used with a Router / End Node E-Block EB051R, Capable of low power operation.
	Auto ID
Automatically generate a PAN ID
	PAN ID
Assigns a Personal Area Network Identifier code to the Zigbee node. Random / Search - Scans the local area for Zigbee PAN networks and joins the existing network, otherwise a random value is chosen. Preset - Assigns a preset PAN ID to the Zigbee node, Must be between 0x0 and 0x3FFF.
	Node Join Time
Length of time in seconds where nodes are allowed to join the network. Infinte - Nodes are always allowed to join the network. Preset - Nodes are only allowed to join the network for a specific amount of time. Note: Join time not available for End Device nodes.
	Max Hops
Specifies the maximum number of retransmits for a Broadcast transmission.
	Sleep Buffer Time
Length of time to buffer packets for sleeping or powered down nodes. This value must be consistent throughout the Zigbee network. Default - Assigns the maximum buffer time of 28 seconds. Preset - Allows for a custom sleep time of 0.32 - 28 seconds.
	Connections
	Channel
UART Channel selector Software channels are bit banged using generic I/O pins but are not as reliable as hardware channels. Hardware channels use the selected peripheral on-board the target microcontroller.
	TX
Pin to be used for Transmit data
	TX Remap Pin
Allows the hardware transmit pin to be configured from a list of available pins based on your target device,
	RX
Pin to be used for Receive data
	RX Remap Pin
Allows the hardware receive pin to be configured from a list of available pins based on your target device,
	Baud Options
Baud rate option selector
	Baud Rate
	Use Flow Control
Flow Control (Handshake) enable or disable. On: Two I/O pins are used to control the flow of data in and out of the device. Off: Flow control is disabled.
	RTS
Pin to be used for Request To Send handshake function Output from target micro to inform remote device we are ready to receive data. Low = Ready to receive data High = Not ready to receive data
	CTS
Pin to be used for Clear To Send handshake function. Input to target micro to inform when the remote device is ready to transmit data. Low = Ready to transmit data High = Not ready to transmit data
	Sleep Pin
Zigbee Sleep Control Pin
	Scan Channels
	0x0B

	Scan Duration
Configures the length of time to scan each channel for network activity. The overall time for the entire channel scan is shown as channel scan time.
	Total Scan Time (ms)
The total amount of time that it will take to perform a complete RF channel scan based on the selected scan channels and duration.
	Simulation
	Label
	Scope Traces
Selects if the scope traces are automatically added to the data recorder window or not. Simulation - draws an approximation of the UART data onto the scope trace. ICT - sets up the scope trace for incoming data and adds UART packet decoding at the correct BAUD.
	Console Data
Selects if the console data is automatically generated or not
	Console Columns
Number of characters that can be displayed on a single line of the console.
	Data Source
Simulation data source used to allow the component to connect to various remote devices Nothing - Simulation data is ignored COM port - Routes the communication data to and from a physical or virtual COM port API - Routes the communication data via a data API component on the Panel.
