2 Overview
2.1 Objective
This document describes the Home Automation (HA) AT Command Set firmware to be used with
Telegesis ZigBee PRO wireless meshing modules on a HA device that can act as a Combined
Interface(CI), Control and Indicating Equipment(CIE) device or On/Off output.
The HA AT Command Set provides a simple AT command interface to implement the CI, CIE or
on/off output of the ZigBee HA Application Profile. The AT command set described in this document
can be used to evaluate Telegesis implementation of HA applications. By using the CICIE with the
Five-In-One device in the evaluation kits, the user can demonstrate a range of HA applications, for
example turn on/off a light, dim a light, get current temperature reading and so on. It can also work
with other IAS devices to demonstrate and evaluate the application of an IAS system.
The AT-Command interface described in this document also enables quick development of a
combined interface, IAS CIE or an on/off output device (for example a switch), which can shorten
the R&D period of a Home Automation product significantly. It enables developers to simply design
and build ZigBee Home Automation compliant combined interface or on/off output products without
ever having to do embedded firmware or RF work.
Telegesis ZigBee modules are based on the EM357 chipset porting the industry leading EmberZNet
ZigBee stack. They can be built into any device and provide a low cost, low power ZigBee solution.
RF experience or expertise is not required to apply this powerful wireless networking capability to
your products. Telegesis ZigBee Modules offer fast integration opportunities and the shortest
possible time to market for your product. This document is meant as an AT-Command and S-
Register reference for HA R3xx firmware based on EmberZNet4.x.
2.2 ZigBee Home Automation Profile
The ZigBee HA Profile is a public application profile which defines device descriptions and standard
practices for applications commonly found in a residential or light commercial environment.
Installation scenarios range from a single room to an entire home. The key applications included in
this profile are lighting, HVAC, window shades and security.
2.2.1 Home Automation Devices

The Telegesis HA device which is introduced in this document supports three endpoints, 0x01, 0x02
and 0x0A. The end point 0x01 has been configured to a combined interface; the end point 0x02 has
