Zigbee PRO and Home Automation

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2431, CC2430, Z-STACK, CC2530
I am developing a device for Home Automation using the CC2430 and CC2431. It's needs to communicate with devices with Zigbee PRO protocol.

However, until now did not understand exactly what the difference between z-stack, 2006 Zigbee, Zigbee PRO and Home Automation.

It would be the z-stack an implementation of Zigbee 2006? How do I implement the Zigbee Pro over CC2430? Home Automation Protocol runs on the Zigbee PRO, or are things different?

Thank you all.

    The Home Automation Profile (HAP) is compatible with ZigBee '06, '07 and PRO. Profiles define network parameters, device types, data cluster interpretation, etc.

    ZigBee '07 and PRO are not available on the CC2430 platform, primarily due to memory constraints.

    ZigBee '06 and '07 devices will operate as End Devices on a PRO network.

    PRO devices will operate as End Device on ZigBee '06 or '07 networks.

    ZigBee '06 and '07 network without restriction.

    Notsane, thanks for your help. I understand that I can not implement the Zigbee PRO and Home Automation Profile due to limited memory of the CC2430.

    My only option is to migrate to the CC2530, which has 256K of memory. This allows the implementation of these protocols?

    Did it have the engine locator system that CC2431 has? It is part of the implementation of the system. If not, can I do the implementation by software?

    Thanks.

    Yes, ZigBee PRO for the CC2530 is available here: http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/z-stack.html  Look for swrc126.zip

    The location engine is only available in the CC2431 device, but you do not need to have the location engine in every network device to run locationing. Only the blind node needs to have the engine. Locationing is not available in software.

    Thanks, now I'm beginning to understand.
    One last question, Texas has implemented a profile?

    There are public profiles and manufacturer specific profiles. Currently available public profiles include Home Automation (HA) and Smart Energy (SE). THere may be other by now. TI has these ... for examples, search your ZigBee installation folder for zcl. That stands for ZigBee Cluster Library.

    A ZigBee Alliance member may apply for a Manufacturer Specific Profile and will be allocated a profile ID for their use. They are then able to create their own profile, with network parameter, device types and data clusters that fits their application and limits their devices from binding with any device other than their own.
