ZigBee coordinator and end device configuration for CC2530 DB

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2530, Z-STACK

Hi,

I have two CC2530 DB, in which one as a coordinator and another one as a end device. How to set specific node joining time period at coordinator for allowing to join a new device???

Actually my requirement is once I power up the coordinator initially, it will wait for 10 sec to join the any device(router/end device). After that it won't allow to join a new device till next power cycle. For this type of configuration is there any parameter I have to set??? so, please suggest some solutions to this problem.

You can use ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq to enable permit join for 10 seconds on coordinator after it boots up.

Hi Yikai Chen,
Thanks for replay. where I can find this parameter in Z-Stack Home 1.2.2.42930 file and in that Home Automation application??? I searched for that parameter and I didn't find any timing parameter to set.

ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq is implemented in ZDProfile.c and you can refer to section 3.1.6.13 ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq in Z-Stack API.pdf for parameter details. The alternative is to use NLME_PermitJoiningRequest which is defined in NLMEDE.h and you only need to pass permit join duration as parameter.

/*
* ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq - Send a Management Permit Join Request
*
* @MT SPI_CMD_ZDO_MGMT_PERMIT_JOIN_REQ
* (UInt16 DstAddr,
* byte duration,
* byte TcSignificance)
*
*/
extern afStatus_t ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq( zAddrType_t *dstAddr,
byte duration,
byte TcSignificance,
byte SecurityEnable );

/*
* This function defines how the next higher layer of a coordinator device
* to permit devices to join its network for a fixed period.
*
* @MT SPI_CMD_NLME_PERMIT_JOINING_REQ
*
*/
extern ZStatus_t NLME_PermitJoiningRequest( byte PermitDuration );

Hi Yikai Chen,

Thanks for replay. I tried with below piece of code(First one) which is in ZDProfile.c file. I am changing the duration parameter as 10 sec but it is not working (same as byte duration = some value). also I tried with second alternative it is showing error, in second alternative in place of "byte PermitDuration" i am placing desired value. so, please provide information about this errors.

First one:-

afStatus_t ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq( zAddrType_t *dstAddr, byte duration,
byte TcSignificance, byte SecurityEnable )
{
(void)SecurityEnable; // Intentionally unreferenced parameter

// Build buffer
ZDP_TmpBuf[ZDP_MGMT_PERMIT_JOIN_REQ_DURATION] = 10;
ZDP_TmpBuf[ZDP_MGMT_PERMIT_JOIN_REQ_TC_SIG] = TcSignificance;

Second alternative:-

extern ZStatus_t NLME_PermitJoiningRequest( 255 );

No, I don't mean you to change anything in ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq. You should call ZDP_MgmtPermitJoinReq or NLME_PermitJoiningRequest in your application code.

Thanks but still i have confusion

Here I am using Home Automation sample application i.e. for coordinator sample thermostat code and for end device sample temperature sensor code. In that sample code where i have to define specific node joining time(10 secs) with those functions.

Add it to coordinator and place it in zclSampleThermostat_event_loop "case ZDO_STATE_CHANGE:".

case ZDO_STATE_CHANGE:

zclSampleThermostat_NwkState = (devStates_t)(MSGpkt->hdr.status);

// now on the network

if ( ( zclSampleThermostat_NwkState == DEV_ZB_COORD ) ||

( zclSampleThermostat_NwkState == DEV_ROUTER ) ||

( zclSampleThermostat_NwkState == DEV_END_DEVICE ) )

{

#ifndef HOLD_AUTO_START

// display main mode

giThermostatScreenMode = THERMOSTAT_MAINMODE;

zclSampleThermostat_LcdDisplayUpdate();

#endif

#ifdef ZCL_EZMODE

zcl_EZModeAction( EZMODE_ACTION_NETWORK_STARTED, NULL );

#endif // ZCL_EZMODE

NLME_PermitJoiningRequest(10);

}

break;
