The modules in this kit have been designed by RFM Engineers and embody the accumulated
expertise gained over 20 years of RF design and implementation experience. Experience
gained designing and implementing some of the most difficult RF networks around including
nuclear power plant monitoring, medical patient vital signs telemetry and industrial asset
tracking. This manual covers both the ZMN2405DK and the ZMN2405HPDK. The only
difference between the two kits is the output power of the modules included. The ZMN2405
module provides 1mW of RF power while the ZMN2405HP provides 65mW of RF power (when
coupled with a 2dB dipole antenna, the ZMN2405HP provides 100mW EIRP).
RFM has six base module versions: ZMN2405, ZMN2405HP, ZMN2430, ZMN2430HP,
ZMN2430A and ZMN2430HPA. All four modules use the same firmware and thus operate the
same. The difference with the two HP versions is that they provide 65mW (100mW with the 2dB
dipole antenna) of transmit power instead of the 1mW of the non-HP modules. The 2405
modules are solder bump while the 2430 modules are castellated. All versions are based on the
CC2430 single chip module. Refer to the data sheets on the dev kit CD for details of the
mechanical differences of the modules. In addition to being available as Coordinator, Router,
and End Device versions, there are “A” versions that include a chip antenna.
There are various flavors of ZigBee devices that this module must support, the Coordinator, the
Router and the End Device. How these devices work and what their functions are in a Zigbee
network are explained in detail is Section 2, Zigbee Networking. The development board can
also be configured as an End Device by downloading the End Device code load provided as
part of the kit. Programming the module is explained in Section 6.
