Zigbee IOT gateway with FRDMKW41Z

[sudhamani_b]

Hi Team,

I am working on Openthread Border Router (on linux Host) with FRDMKW41Z as radio.

Now I want to implement Zigbee IOT gateway on the same Border Router Host(lets say RPI3B) with FRDMKW41Z as radio.

I found document JN-AN-1222-IoT-Gateway-Host-with-NFC+v2007, which will use JN516x wireless mcu with RPI Hardware.

Any inputs on how to get Zigbee IOT gateway with FRDMKW41Z and RPI3B (or any linux Host) would be helpful.

Thanks,

Sudhamani

Hi Sudhamani,

Please look at the next application note. Host SDK on Linux OS

Chapter 14. Thread HSDK demo

Please let me know if you have any problems with the document. Hope it helps

Hi, 

Thanks for the response. 

However I don't want to use with SDK.

I have come across with zboss zigbee stack. 

Is it possible to achieve the above said requirement with zboss stack?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Sudhamani,

Unfortunately, we do not provide any ZBOSS stack. You could look at the example that we provide that are certified and compatible with the Zigbee Standards.

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

I understand that Zboss stack is not opensource.

My query is;

if I get Zboss stack(Zboss3.0), will NXP FRDM-KW41Z support that stack for building zigbee applications?

Any help is appreciated

Hi Sudhamani,

I can not warranty that the KW41 will support that stack, It will depend on a lot of factors and some migrations that you have to implement. Also, you need to be careful of the radio registers for transmit and receive data.

Hi

Thanks for the response.

As you suggested in the first reply, I am looking at using HOST SDK on Linux OS.

With this I wanted to implement zigbee control bridge, which can be controlled from linux PC.

In AN12566, it is saying that control bridge can only be controlled from ZGUI from test tool appliation.

Same document mentions that test tool application only runs on windows machine.

My requirement is to control control-bridge from Linux Host.

How can i get this done.

Any inputs on this will be appreciated.

Sudhamani

HI Sudhamani Bijivemula,

Please look at the Application Note ZigBee 3.0 IoT Control Bridge and look at the Appendix A: Serial Protocol.

"\KW41_SDK\docs\wireless\Zigbee\Application Notes\AN12063-MKW41Z-AN-ZigBee-3-0-ControlBridge.pdf"

You should program the KW41 with the Control bridge example, and through the UART commands could control the Zigbee network. You have to implement it in Linux, please look at the next frame.

Hi 

Thanks for the response. 

I want to implement serial protocol based test application in Linux.

To go this I want to refer source code of windows based ZGUI test tool application. 

Where can I get the source code. 

Any other references related to this will be more useful. 

Any help would be appreciated. 

Regards, 

Sudhamani.

Hi Sudhamani,

Please look at the next Application Note: JN-AN-1222 ZigBee IoT Gateway with NFC.  5 IoT Gateway Software

You have to download the JN-AN-1222 ZigBee Home Automation | NXP

Hi 

Thanks for the response. I am using zigbee Blackbox coordinator, router (light bulb) , end device (switch control ) in a simple network. I could able to control router led from end device. And router is reporting led status (on/off) cluster attribute to coordinator. But I want to disable led status reporting, and enable temperature simulated data (measurement and sensing cluster) reporting feature from router.

How can I achieve this.

Any input on this would be appreciated.

Regards, 

Sudhamani

Hi Sudhamani,

You have to unbind the led status and bind the temperature for reporting the data.

Look at the example "KW41_SDK\boards\frdmkw41z\wireless_examples\zigbee_3_0\lto_sensor"
