A couple of days ago I posted how to get a switch using the ZigBee protocol running with an XBee <link>; I'm pretty proud of that, but there's lots of folk out there with an Arduino already. What about them? Since I love those little board, I ported the code over to it as well. See, the protocol is huge and extensive, but once you know how to operate a device that uses the protocol, you don't need much code to keep doing it. That makes the little Arduino a cool device for controlling a ZigBee switch.
This code is the rough equivalent of the code I posted previously for the Raspberry Pi, same selections, except I left out the one that interrogates the switch, and let it report when the switch joins with the Arduino. So, go look at the explanation I've already done to see how it works and how to use it. Here's the Arduino Sketch:
Have fun with it.
