INTRODUCTION
This chapter introduces the ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer hardware and software,
and briefly describes their capabilities. The ZENA analyzer provides three main tools
to develop IEEE 802.15.4 solutions quickly and efficiently with the free Microchip Stack
for the ZigBee™ protocol. The ZENA analyzer enables developers to quickly modify
and adapt the Microchip Stack for the ZigBee protocol to suit application requirements.
The ZENA analyzer is also an IEEE 802.15.4 packet analyzer currently supporting the
2.4 GHz spectrum. The ZENA analyzer is capable of decoding ZigBee protocol v1.0
packets. The ZENA analyzer also provides ZigBee protocol network analysis support.
The ZENA analyzer draws the network topology of the ZigBee protocol network as it is
formed, allows users to watch packet transactions as they occur, record the packet
transactions and play these packets back at variables speeds. These tools, combined,
form a power tool in wireless development for the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol.
1.2 ZENA WIRELESS NETWORK ANALYZER KIT CONTENTS
The ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer kit contains the following items:
• ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer
• USB mini-B cable
• ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer CD-ROM
1.3 ZENA ANALYZER OVERVIEW
The ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer board, seen in Figure 1-1, combines the
PIC18LF2550 for full-speed, USB support with an IEEE 802.15.4 transceiver.
