Please note that Daintree's Sensor Network Analyzer software and Sensor Network Adapter hardware were discontinued on March 31, 2010, and are no longer available for sale. The following information is provided for support purposes only.  

Wireless embedded technologies are ideal for use in applications that require low power consumption, reliability, robustness, and security, such as smart energy, home and building automation, lighting, heating and cooling, home entertainment, security, and industrial automation.

Daintree's Sensor Network Analyzer (SNA) provides support for many wireless embedded technologies, including the following: 

Flexible decode support

The SNA includes a flexible decode engine, which allows it to decode multiple standards-based and proprietary network protocols. The protocol decode details used by the SNA are stored in standard XML files, which makes it easy to update existing definitions as required, and also to create and add new protocol definitions.

The SNA's Protocols menu allows you to select which protocol stack and layers to decode, and the Options > Settings menu allows you to specify which fields to display in the Packet List:

  • Decode details for ALL network protocols are shown in the (1) Packet List and (3) Packet Decode windows. 
  • The (2) Packet Timeline window shows packets for protocols based on IEEE 802.15.4.
  • The (4) Visual Device Tree window shows a graphical representation of network activity for protocols that use IEEE 802.15.4 MAC Associations.
  • The (5) Measurements window shows ZigBee and IEEE 802.15.4 performance measurements.

SNA Protocol Decodes 

Select any packet from the (1) Packet List or (2) Packet Timeline windows to display its details in the (3) Packet Decode window, through which you can drill down to the field level and byte level. 

Powerful filters, sorting, and customization options such as renaming and color-coding fields, help to make packets of interest quick and easy to locate.
