Daintree's Sensor Network Analyzer (SNA) provides the industry's most comprehensive solution for ZigBee and 802.15.4 testing, analysis and commissioning.
Supported by an extensive range of chipset evaluation boards, and committed to standards-based development and commissioning, the industry-standard SNA offers a complete toolkit for your ZigBee and 802.15.4 development, testing, deployment and management needs.
Available in three different editions—Professional, Standard, and Basic—you can pay for the functionality you need today, and upgrade in future as your needs increase.
An overview of the SNA's key functionality is provided below. Download the datasheet if you require more detailed information.
Visualize
Understand device and network behavior quickly with visual troubleshooting. Observe your network's operation by visually analyzing how devices join the network, routing behavior, and application binding:
Visual network: Use ground-breaking visual analysis. Watch devices join the network and understand behavior by observing packet routes. Unique views help to simplify monitoring and troubleshooting.
Visual profiles: Visualize endpoints and bindings to rapidly determine application behavior. Observe all transactions and identify correct bindings.
Rapid troubleshooting with visual context filters: Select any visual object such as a device, route, or binding and show all packets associated with that object.
Obtain new measurements and overlay information: Critical information, such as battery level and LQI between devices, can be overlaid on other information such as network structure and routes.
Obtain new perspectives: Quickly switch between a tree view and a physical layout to better understand the impact of physical structures and network design on the behavior and performance of your network and devices.
Route detection: Detect all routes taken through the network, with routes classified as successful or failed.
Validate commissioning: Watch network formation to ensure devices join correctly. Right-click any device to configure and specify commissioning settings.
Analyze
Use unparalleled navigation tools to analyze your implementation and detect problems. Troubleshoot protocol issues with complete detail, or focus by narrowing your search:
Complete information about your wireless sensor network: Access every field of every packet from every device in your network. Do this for small or large networks, in one room or throughout a building. Using multi-node distributed sniffing for large networks.
Narrow your search quickly with powerful and easy to use filters: Find packets of interest from among thousands or millions by defining filters. Quickly narrow your search by requesting similar packets from a selected packet.
Full protocol decoding: View detailed packet-by-packet decodes of every 802.15.4 and ZigBee (APL and NWK layer) header field. Auto-detect security key exchanges at the APL and NWK layer. Use detected keys to decrypt packets for analysis. Decodes reflect the latest specs (PRO/2007.2006/2004).
Analyze new or custom applications: With SoftProfiles™ you can define new or custom applications using XML and decode new protocols with ease. Includes definitions of the ZigBee Cluster Library, Home Automation Profile, and Smart Energy (AMI) Profile.
Navigate through large amounts of data and share them: Save and replay your network at original (or faster) speeds, pause, step or fast forward. Insert breakpoints at events of interest. Share data between teams to quickly resolve issues.
Measure
Use the industry’s only performance analysis solution to ensure that your network meets necessary performance requirements.
Complete measurements: Obtain performance measurements on every single device, route and application binding in the network.
Critical metrics: Determine performance with critical metrics such as packet counts and losses, and min/avg/max end-to-end latencies.
Commission
Simplify the configuration and commissioning of 802.15.4/ZigBee systems during development, field trials, deployment and maintenance with easy-to-use GUI and standards-based over-the-air commands to ensure interoperability.
Commission: Commission key startup parameters such as Extended PAN ID, channel, and security keys with easy-to-use graphical layouts or devices list.
Binding: Use binding and group commissioning to establish control paths between devices. Store binding and group information in devices or tables.
Discover: Scan the network to discover its overall structure. Discover active services on endpoints of any device.
Locationing: Scan to find the locations of individual devices.**
Over-the-air:
Configure devices using standards-based over-the-air commands to ensure interoperability.
Upgrade: Upgrade device firmware over-the-air to save time and reduce errors.**
Customize: Use Daintree's API to customize and extend the commissioning tool's behavior and issue instructions directly to the network.
Portable: Run the SNA on a laptop for a truly portable commissioning, monitoring and analysis solution, that you can take where you need it, when you need it.
Monitor and troubleshoot:
Verify and monitor with the industry's most comprehensive analyzer in one integrated solution.

Software editions
There are three SNA editions available: Professional, Standard, and Basic. The Professional edition provides more functionality than the Standard edition, which in turn provides more functionality than the Basic edition. Professional and Standard are available to purchase from Daintree Networks, and Basic is provided with many popular semiconductor development kits.
Professional edition
A complete toolkit for ZigBee and 802.15.4 development, testing, commissioning, and maintenance. Key differentiators include multi-node capture, advanced network visualization, detailed performance measurements, active analysis of live networks, advanced troubleshooting, and commissioning tool.
Standard edition
An essential set of tools for ZigBee and 802.15.4 development and testing. Key features include comprehensive protocol analysis with detailed packet lists and packet decodes, filters and extensive capture playback controls, editable XML-based profiles, and basic network visualization.
Basic edition
