ZigBee Operator

Every hardware component that makes it possible for you to use its features is programmed using specialized devices and applications. One such tool strictly dedicated to ZigBee and XBee modules is ZigBee Operator. It lets you analyze info received and send back custom lists of entries containing various types of data.

The main window brings up a well-structured interface that does not pose any accommodation problems. Connection modes are stored in tabs and you can choose from mesh network, 802.15.4 which is the actual ZigBee module, AT terminal, as well as a standard mode.

There are several data formats you can populate the list with, amongst which you find COM status, text, HEX, Dec, or a file. The application also lets you quickly send pieces of text so you don't have to create entire lists before submission.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that ZigBee Operator is a powerful tool that can be used to fully configure and analyze ZigBee and XBee modules. The intuitive design allows you to quickly accommodate, while available features provide means to easily read and save data or send packages with custom info.
