Zigbee is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, which is the standard of the Zigbee Alliance. Zigbee can be understood is zig(zag) + bee.
This is the wireless communication standard with outstanding advantages: Up to 65,000 nodes of connectivity (network nodes), low power consumption, high power savings, high security, fast connection, stable operation, good resistance to interference. Vietnam is in region using the 2.4GHz band.
The andon solution using Zigbee technology is designed to meet the stringent requirements of the industrial environment for its outstanding advantages. Mesh Topology design improves reliability and availability, as any nodes fail, other nodes will automatically find other nodes to connect and transmit data. Network nodes can be connected to each other up to a distance of up to 100 meters. In an entire area with adjacent nodes, only one Signal Converter is needed to deliver the collected signal to the LAN for software can storage and processing.
In addition to the advantages listed in the Zigbee technology application, when implementing this solution also bring significant effects to customers: cost savings, rapid deployment, saving time, reduce the impact on production, also ensures aesthetics and easy to maintenance.
Operation monitoring with Zigbee wireless technology is a perfect choice for use in factories and production lines.
