ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer User’s Guide 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. DS51606C Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices • Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet. • Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the intended manner and under normal conditions. • There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property. • Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code. • Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code.

ZENA WIRELESS NETWORK ANALYZER USER’S GUIDE Chapter ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer Overview INTRODUCTION This chapter introduces the ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer hardware and software, and briefly describes their capabilities. The ZENA analyzer provides three main tools to develop IEEE solutions quickly and efficiently with the free Microchip Stacks for the ZigBee protocol and the MiWi protocol. The ZENA analyzer enables developers to quickly modify and adapt the Stacks to suit application requirements. The ZENA analyzer is also an IEEE packet analyzer, currently supporting the GHz spectrum. The ZENA analyzer is capable of decoding ZigBee protocol v1.0 and MiWi protocol packets. The ZENA analyzer also provides network analysis support. The ZENA analyzer draws the network topology of the network as it is formed and allows users to watch packet transactions as they occur, record the packet transactions and play these packets back at variable speeds. These tools, combined, form a powerful tool in wireless development for the IEEE protocol. Note The ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer board does not have to be attached to the computer to use the configuration tool or the playback functionality. ZENA WIRELESS NETWORK ANALYZER KIT CONTENTS The ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer kit contains the following items • ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer • USB mini-B cable • ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer CD-ROM ZENA ANALYZER OVERVIEW The ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer board, seen in Figure 1-1, combines the PIC18LF2550 for full-speed, USB support with an IEEE transceiver. 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. DS51606C-page 7 ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer User’s Guide FIGURE 1-1 ZENA WIRELESS NETWORK ANALYZER BOARD The ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer uses a USB mini-B cable to connect to the PC. The ZENA analyzer is powered by the USB bus. A PCB trace antenna receives the packets on the specified channel and sends the information over USB to the PC computer using the HID standard class.

INTRODUCTION

This chapter describes how to install the ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer software.

INSTALLING ZENA ANALYZER SOFTWARE

Since the ZENA analyzer software can be used independently of the hardware, it is available from multiple sources, including the ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer CD-ROM, the installation for source files of AN965, “Microchip Stack for the ZigBee Protocol”, and the installation for source files of AN1066, “MiWi Wireless Networking Protocol Stack”. The version shipped with the application notes is a demo version, which provides Stack configuration and packet playback capability, but does not allow real-time network monitoring with the ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer hardware. The full version is shipped with the ZENA Wireless Network Analyzer board.
