This document describes how to use the STM3210C-EVAL, based on the STM32F107VC microcontroller, as a web console to monitor and control a ZigBee network of smartplugs. The application can be used as a reference for the development of a ZigBee - TCP/IP Networks Bridge and is an example on how, in a smartgrid scenario, the services offered by a ZigBee HAN can be exported to the Internet by an Ethernet/Internet gateway. The STM32F107VC coordinates the ZigBee network through an SPZB260-PRO module included in an adapter connected by the expansion connectors of the STM3210C-EVAL; the ZigBee network is built using several STEVAL-IHP001V3s used to monitor and control several AC loads (lights, appliances, etc.) inside the HAN. The adapter also includes an M24LR64-R dual interface EEPROM to store the TCP/IP network configuration. In fact, in the microcontroller firmware, a web server is also implemented which allows to monitor the AC load power consumption measured by each smartplug and to control its status (ON/OFF).
This document details how to use the STM3210C-EVAL evaluation board, based on the STM32F107VC microcontroller, as a web console to monitor and control a ZigBee network of smartplugs. The application serves as a reference for developing ZigBee-TCP/IP network bridges and demonstrates exporting ZigBee Home Area Network (HAN) services to the Internet via an Ethernet/Internet gateway.
The system coordinates the ZigBee network through an SPZB260-PRO module connected to the STM3210C-EVAL via expansion connectors. The network consists of several STEVAL-IHP001V3 smartplug boards used to monitor and control AC loads. An M24LR64-R dual interface EEPROM stores TCP/IP network configuration, while an embedded web server allows users to monitor power consumption and control the status of connected smartplugs.
