ZigBee Application Kit - Control and communicate using alow-cost, low-power, embedded wireless solution

Features and Benefits

The ZigBee Application Kit combines MaxStream’s XBee RF modem with the popular RCM3720 RabbitCore module along with an easy-to-use interface to help customers build a practical ZigBee wireless control network. ZigBee paired with the RCM3720 provides a low-cost, robust wireless infrastructure that allows users to monitor and control remote devices within a wireless meshed network.

Key Features

• RabbitCore™ module running @ 22.1 MHz, and
• 10Base-T Ethernet.512K Flash, 256K SRAM, 1MB
  
• Serial Flash as on-board memory, and 33 GPIO lines

• Three MaxStream® ZigBee wireless modules and cables for simple connections
• Sample programs and libraries that allow for simple digital I/O feedback and control, Ethernet to ZigBee
  gateway functionality, mesh networking communication
• RabbitWeb™ simplified html programming software with refresh mechanism
• User-friendly web interface for ZigBee network setup, RF modem configuration, and firmware update functions.

Design Advantages:

• Reference application that uses a low-cost, low-power ZigBee infrastructure to connect Rabbit-based devices
• Supports topologies: point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and mesh
• Easily scalable for commercial deployment applications
