Wireless ZB ZigBee Mesh Networking
ProXR Lite Enhanced with A/D

Take all the Power of the ProXR Command Set
...add the Power of a ZB ZigBee Networking Interface..
...and you've got  More That a "Lite Relay Controller"!

Available as a ZB ZigBee Mesh Network Mesh Networking Router Icon Router or Mesh Networking Endpoint Icon Endpoint

The latest Buzz in Wireless Technology is ZB ZigBee.  ZB ZigBee is a great way to communicate data throughout buildings (or even across town) because it uses all the devices in the area to make sure your data arrives at its intended destination.  ZB ZigBee automatically hops your data all over the ZB ZigBee Mesh Network,  transparently forwarding your data to its intended destination.  The beauty of ZB ZigBee is that you don't have to do anything except tell it where you want your data to go.  The ZB ZigBee Mesh Network handles everything else for you.  We have created a page dedicated to helping ZB ZigBee Mesh Network users understand this technology.  So if you are a first time user of ZB ZigBee and you are looking for a great place to get started, see our article!

By combining the power of ZB ZigBee Mesh Networking with our ProXR series relay controllers, you can take advantage of our powerful ProXR command set for data collection and control, in combination with many wireless ZB ZigBee Mesh Networking features.  ZB ZigBee is a perfect integration of good speed and excellent reliability, and for the first time, you can now improve data reliability by adding routers between the computer and far away devices.

Here is a quick rundown of what you should expect from ZB ZigBee Mesh Network:

Plug a ZB ZigBee Coordinator into the USB Port of your computer.  The Coordinator will be used to communicated to your wireless ZB ZigBee Mesh Network.  The Coordinator will mount as a COM port on your PC.  Open the COM port and start sending data to the Coordinator.  The Coordinator will forward your data to any or all devices on the ZB ZigBee Mesh Network.

A ZB ZigBee Mesh Network consists of up to three components: 
Mesh Networking Coordinator Icon
Mesh Networking Communications Icon
Mesh Networking Router Icon
Mesh Networking Communications Icon
Mesh Networking Router Icon
Mesh Networking Communications Icon
Mesh Networking Endpoint Icon		 A Coordinator is Required because it allows your computer to talk to the ZB ZigBee Mesh Network.  Use only ONE coordinator in your ZB ZigBee Mesh Network.
A Router allows data to hop to another part of the ZB ZigBee Mesh Network.  It helps contribute to the network, and it can serve as an Endpoint device.  In other words, if a relay controller has the Router firmware installed, you can talk to this device directly, or data can be forwarded from this device to another device that may be too far away for the Coordinator to reach directly.  Routers are slower than endpoint devices, so use routers wisely.
An Endpoint device can also be a relay controller or many other types of NCD devices.  However, endpoint devices cannot forward data to other parts of the ZB ZigBee Mesh Network.  Endpoint devices are faster than router devices, so it is always wise to use Endpoint devices when possible, and router devices when required.

ProXR Lite Is Here!

A more streamlined manufacturing process brings a more durable, reliable and better relay board to the market. Here's a list of great features:

User Friendly Board Design
  • Surface mount allows for a smaller board
  • Break-A-Way Tabs lets you decide the board's size
  • Interchangeable interfaces allows you to upgrade or change your interface at any time
ProXR Lite Features
  • Works with the full ProXR Command Set
  • 8-Channel 8/10-Bit Analog to Digital Converter
  • Highly reliable relay with industry leading command set
ProXR Lite Limitations
  • This controller cannot be expanded

ProXR Lite Relay Controller

The ProXR Lite Series is a great alternative for those looking for a low cost solution that requires the power and reliability of a ProXR Controller. With a wide selection in Relay type and Communication Interface there is a ProXR Lite board to match your application. Every ProXR Lite Board has Breakaway Tabs that give you the option to make the board smaller or fit it for an enclosure. Interchangeable Interface Modules allow you to switch communication interfaces by simply powering down the device and replacing the module.

The ProXR Lite series are based on the same designs that offer a 5 year warranty. However, in an effort to further save cost, we have limited the warranty of the ProXR Lite series controllers. ProXR Lite series controllers are guaranteed ONLY against manufacturing and functionality defects for a period of 30 days. Controllers that are damaged by our customers will not be warranted under any circumstances. ProXR Lite series controllers are designed for long life; however, should they be damaged, they should be discarded and replaced.

Unlike the ProXR series relay controllers, ProXR Lite series controllers are NOT expandable. The firmware still thinks 256 relays are available, however, the relay portion of the controller only responds to the first 1, 2, 4 or 8 relays in Bank 1. We did NOT skip the Analog Input portion of the ProXR Lite. All ProXR Lite controllers offer a 8-Channel 8/10-Bit Analog to Digital Converter in addition to relay control. The ProXR Lite responds to the same firmware as the ProXR series controllers and is therefore 100% compatible with any applications designed to work with a ProXR series controller (click here to see the ProXR command set).

A/D Conversion on the R45PL_ZBMESH

Analog to Digital conversion is available on the R45PL_ZBMESH controller.  Analog to Digital Conversion allows you to read voltage levels from 0-5 volts using 8-bit or 10-bit resolution.  A/D Inputs are useful for reading, temperature sensors light level sensors, thermocouples, switch closures, or just about any other kind of sensor you can think of.  Built-In Pull-Up/Down Resistors keep the inputs quiet.  Eight Different A/D Sample programs are available in the NCD Component Library.  These samples are available as a free download and are compatible with Visual Studio.   We've got sensors!  Visit our Sensor Page for sensors that have been tested and work with the R45PL_ZBMESH controller.
