APS Ack,IAS zone,Broadcast

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2530

Hi All

We have an issue with Zigbee PRO stack ver. 2.3.0-1.4.0 on CC2530 configured as coordinator in HA profile mode. 

When a Motion Detector (ZigbeePRO IAS Zone device) is registered  as Zone, where CIE is implemented on the coordinator. When an event is generated on the Motion detector, it broadcasts a zone change notification on 0xfffd . The coordinator is supposed to send the APS ACK which is missing,  though the event is processed on coordinator. Because of the missing APS ACK, the  Motion detector will further stop sending new events.

Can you tell us why APS ACK is  not generated, why the coordinator is re-broadcasting the event ?

After sending ZoneStatusChangeNotification no packets were sent (or stops sending events).

Pls. help us to solve this problem

  • Hi,

    I am also working with cc2530 trying to implement it as a co-ordinator for IAS devices.

    Can you guide me as to how the co-ordinator can be implemented as a CIE?

    I am currently working with the sample applications provided with the zigbee pro 2.5.1 stack.

    My end devices are from various vendors including TI and netvox.  There is some problem while joining the IAS zone cluster devices as they join and then break and then join again. The cycle continues on and on. What could be the problem? Is it because the zone clusters are not implemented on my co-ordinator or is there some security issue with the IAS devices?

    Any help would be appreciated. Please reply soon.

    Thanks,

    Sumegha
