WiSens® is a top-quality tool that allows for capture and analysis of real-time ZigBee™ / IEEE 802.15.4 over-the-air data packets. Product developers, working on new and complex wireless standards such as ZigBee™, face several difficulties and challenges.

Product developers, working on new and complex wireless standards such as ZigBee™, face several difficulties and challenges. WiSens® simplifies their task with its powerful yet simple GUI, practically abstracting the complexity of ZigBee™. This simplicity user to capture, monitor, analyze the over-the-air ZigBee™ packets and debug the system, with precision, ease and speed.

The decoding and rendering of the captured packets in a descriptive and colorful graphical format on the PC screen allows the user to easily understand the nature of communication in the ZigBee™ system under study. Selective field-wise viewing of various packets, filtering options, identification of the nodes by user-applied labeling, "Node-packet graph" snapshot view, viewing the packets in different modes - descriptive WiSens® Classic/raw data display modes, color and black-white-and-Grey printing formats and configuration are some of the smart power-features offered by WiSens® Classic.

WiSens® Classic captures all conversations between devices in a network, communicating in a specified channel, just as you would capture a chat session with a friend. The sentences give way to packets, graphically displayed - and you see the conversation! The packets are captured, displayed and stored sequentially, and can be traced to who spoke what at what time. If there is a glitch, you see it in vivid detail on the screen, making it is easy to diagnose and fix a problem.

The sniffer captures wireless communication packets transmitted between devices conforming to IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee™ specifications. The display format of the packets conforms to these specifications.

The product comprises hardware and software components.The hardware consists of a radio transceiver with microcontroller as main components. The entire hardware resides in a USB drive, compactly packaged. The PC or laptop resident software along with documentation is delivered in a CD along with the hardware.
