8.1 Cloning: Method One

The following are steps used to clone the network properties of a ZC which underwent the procedure in Section 7:

  1. Download and unzip the contents found here.
  2. Connect the coordinator device (ZC1) to the PC and note the COM Port. *
  3. Connect the new coordinator device (ZC2) to the PC and note the COM Port. *
  4. Run the TI Zigbee Network Cloning Tool by clicking on the executable file within the contents of the unzipped folder.

    5. NOTE

    Step (4) can happen before steps (2) and (3). If so, within the tool go to Tools -> Scan for Devices in order to update the COM ports.

  5. Select the ‘Clone’ application option within the tool, and then the corresponding COM Ports for the devices to be read and written to. Content should be read from ZC1 and written to ZC2.
  6. Within the tool go to Tools -> Form Network. This will form a network on ZC2. It is important to form a network first so that ZC2 can have a Network Information Base (NIB) before writing to it.
  7. Press the ‘Start’ button, and watch the output to make sure there are no errors. To view the content that was read from ZC1, open the read file under View -> Read File once the reading procedure is complete.
  8. Remove ZC1 from the NWK by powering it off.
  9. After completion, power cycle or restart ZC2. This is necessary for the ZC to update its NV content with the new content that was written. Once the device restarts, it will take the place of ZC1. **
