401 – 2071 Kingsway Ave. Port Coquitlam, BC V3C 6N2 Canada August 21, 2013 To Whom It May Concern: Regarding the application for certification of: FCC ID: VD4Q53R6 IC ID: 7162A-Q53R6 Five electrically identical devices will be certified under model numbers Q51, Q52, Q53R6, Q70, and Q71. They differ only in the firmware which provides high-level (application specific) functionality. Software running in the device described in the test report has the structure shown in Figure 1. Figure 1: Q52 Architecture Commonality All five models have the same MAC Layer (firmware) and Physical Radios (hardware). Q51 The Q51 has no network layers. The application firmware controls the Media Access Control (MAC) Layer directly and operates the MAC Layer and Physical Radios almost exclusively in receive-only mode, transmitting only under manual control for short bursts. Q52 Q52 firmware was used to generate test data and fully exercises the functionality of the radios. Application Firmware Network Layer MAC Layer Physical 900MHz Radio Physical 2.4GHz Radio Network Layer MAC Layer 401 – 2071 Kingsway Ave. Port Coquitlam, BC V3C 6N2 Canada Q53R6 The Q53R6 has the same architecture as the Q52, but presents a SOAP and REST based control interface on the Internet interface. The Network, MAC, and physical radios are identical to the Q53R6. Q70 The Q70 has the same MAC Layers, and the same Physical Radio layers as the Q52. It uses IPv6 instead of the IPv4 used in the Q52. Only its Application Firmware and Network Layers differ from the Q52. Q71 The Q71 has the same architecture as the Q70, but with some added application level components for a custom application. It also includes one RS-485 interface. Sincerely, Exegin Technologies Limited Fred Fierling [email protected] T: 604-468-2552 x636

1 / 3 Q53 Theory of Operation Introduction ZigBee is a mesh networking protocol for control devices with IEEE 802.15.4 radios, such as switches, dimmers, volume controls, and sensor devices such as thermostats, humidistats and motion detectors. Devices in a mesh network directly communicate only with nearby neighbour devices at low RF power levels. To communicate with more distant devices, packets are hopped across the mesh from device to device using the most reliable route. A general purpose computer with an 802.15.4 radio can join a mesh network directly, but it is often necessary to interact with mesh networks over greater distances than radio links can reach. A device with an Ethernet interface and an 802.15.4 radio is therefore useful in the topology shown in Figure 1. The Q53s in Figure 1 provide communication links between their respective nearest neighbours by radio link and to a distant general purpose computer. Operation The Q53 hardware has the architecture shown in Figure 2. Software consists of a real-time operating system, a TCP/IP stack, a ZigBee stack (see Figure 3) and application software, such as a web browser, a telnet interface, and applications software. Data Flow A Q53 joins the network advertised by its nearest neighbours using a radio link. It advertises routes to devices at the other end of its internet connection. Packets received from its neighbours destined for remote devices are optionally encrypted then forwarded across the Ethernet connection using UDP datagrams or TCP sessions as defined by the bridge and gateway protocols of the ZigBee Alliance. These datagrams are received by the computer or Q53 at the other end of the internet link, optionally decrypted, and retransmitted to its neighbours. Packets are checked at each interface for data integrity and dropped if errors are detected. Each Q53 includes its own ZigBee network stack in order to appear to its neighbours as any other ZigBee device with routes to remote devices. The bridged routes are indistinguishable from any radio links that might exist between ordinary devices. Q53 General Purpose Computer Internet Figure 1 – Mesh Network with Gateway Q53 7/16/2013 2 / 3 VD4Q53R6-Op-Theory.doc In addition to its bridging functionality, a web browser and command line interface allow users to configure, monitor, manage and update the devices over an internet connection.
