22 ProBee-ZU10 User Guide Rev.1.5
AT+PERMIT=255 or AT+PJ=255
The user can permit joining for a moment at need. The AT command to permit joining is
AT+PERMIT=n or AT+PJ=n
, where n is the duration to permit in seconds ranging 1~254 seconds.
The ZU10 permits joining for the duration that is configured in S-register 22 (S22). The AT command to
change the duration is as follows:
ATS22=n
, where n is the duration to permit in seconds ranging 1~254 seconds. Default is 255.
S22 value determines the time that the device will allow other devices to join to it. If set to 255, the device
will always permit other nodes joining. If the user reboots the coordinator (or a router), the device allows
other nodes to join the network for the period defined by S-register 22.
Note: When a device that has joined a network reboots, the device is able to join the network regardless
of permitting. But, after the device has joined other network, rejoining the previous network should be
permitted by the coordinator or a router.
3.2 Setting up ZU10 as a Router
A router is a full-function routing device that relays messages and can act as a parent to other nodes.
These devices must be always powered on.
To configure the ZU10 as a ZigBee router, please follow the steps below.

Configure the ZU10 node type as a router.

Optionally, select the channel mask. Otherwise, the ZU10 will use the default channel mask.

Optionally, set up the PAN ID and/or the extended PAN ID. Otherwise, the ZU10 will scan and join
the ZigBee network found automatically.

Permit joining when other router or end-device tries to join the ZigBee network.
3.2.1 Node Type Selection for Router
The ZU10 adapter can be configured as a ZigBee router by the AT command as below:
AT+NODETYPE=n or AT+NT=n
, where n is 0 = none, 1 = coordinator, 2 = router, 3 = end-device, 4 = sleepy end-device
After the operation mode is selected, ATZ command should be performed to reset the unit to have the
change applied.
