3.5 Communications Testing

Once the ZT-2005-C8 module has joined the ZigBee network, the signal quality can
be comfirmed by monitoring the status of the ZigBee Net LED indicators. If the LED
indicator shows a steady light, communication with the ZT-2005-C8 module has been
successfully established for data acquisition and control.
ICP DAS also provides the "DCON Utility", which can be used to simulate
DCON/Modbus communication. This software can also be used to verify the device
settings and ZT-2005-C8 functions.
 The DCON Utility Pro can be download from:
http://ftp.icpdas.com/pub/cd/8000cd/napdos/driver/dcon_utility/
 Simulating I/O channel via the DCON Utility Pro
1. Launch the DCON Utility and select the appropriate COM Port settings to connect
to the ZigBee Coordinator (ZT-2550/ZT-2570).
2. Click the "Search" button to start searching for ZT-2005-C8 modules connected
to the same ZigBee network.
3. If any ZT-2005-C8 modules are found, they will be displayed in the device list
window. Double-click the list of the module name to start the platform to operate
the I/O channels.
