1.  Introduction 
The ZTM-W / ZTM-P is a FCC certified design and a small-sized wireless-UART converter solution 
consisting of a micro controller unit with RF transceiver and a RF power amplifier front-end, or often 
called the low-noise amplifier (LNA), and it offers excellent the sensitivity. The ZTM-W / ZTM-P is 
based on the 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 standard, and either the function of radio-frequency or ZigBee 
firmware is available to be used. It can be controlled through an external host/system microcontroller 
or external evaluation software through the UART interface. We use the same hardware but the 
different firmware to achieve the RF Modem, ZigBee Coordinator or ZigBee Router. 
       
2.  Models 
ZTM-W / ZTM-P module is intended for OEM integrator. The module includes PA/LNA and the 
either PCB Antenna or Connector of Dipole Antenna. It depends on market positioning to install 
firmware.

4.  Protocol Overview 
The bidirectional data exchange between an external host/system microcontroller and the ZTM-WP 
module uses the hardware UART and follows the RS232 protocol. This RS232 protocol is summarized
