4 Getting Started with Zigbee Applications
- 4.1 Zigbee Project Generation
- 4.2 Zigbee Console Commands
- 4.3 Zigbee Commisioning Procedure
  Commissioning is the process of initializing the devices to join a network and to work together. The Zigbee Base Device Behaviour specification specifies the procedures for the following commissioning mechanisms which are executed in the order as provided below.
- 4.4 Zigbee Network Security Models
- 4.5 Zigbee Green Power
  Green Power is a feature of Zigbee, that allows for energy-harvesting technology to be used directly with the Zigbee stack. Green Power is the global wireless standard for large installations, when changing batteries and accessing devices becomes costly.
- 4.6 ZigBee OTA Sniffer
- 4.7 ZigBee Applications
  This section describes steps to test and develop the precompiled Zigbee application examples.
5 Getting Started with Multiprotocol Applications
This section describes steps to test and develop the precompiled BLE and Zigbee coexistence application examples.

4.7 ZigBee Applications

This section describes steps to test and develop the precompiled Zigbee application examples.

The Zigbee Application examples are simple precompiled examples that can be tested using more than one WBZ451 Curiosity boards. These precompiled examples do not require the full toolchain set-up. Therefore, programming and testing them must not take more than a few minutes.

The Zigbee examples are provided here to understand our BitCloud stack based on ZigBee specification, various ZigBee device types, and supported device clusters. These examples are explained to handle the single and multiple clusters supported device types specified by ZigBee specification. The provided examples demonstrate features of ZigBee lights, thermostats, various sensors, etc. Also, ZigBee supports various device types which were used to form ZigBee compliance network devices. This is recommended for users who are new to the Microchip BLE stack and other toolchains like MPLAB Code Configurator.
