Z-Stack Documentation
The SimpleLink CC13xx and CC26xx Software Development Kit(SDK) allows easier product development by combining TI-RTOS and the Zigbee protocol stack in one unified SDK. All Z-Stack sample applications are based off the TI-RTOS Kernel. Key documents needed for Zigbee application development include:
- Z-Stack Quick Start Guide
- TI Z-Stack User’s Guide
- Z-Stack Application APIs
- Z-Stack Migration Guides
- Z-Stack Monitor and Test API
- Z-Stack ZCL APIs
Installation and Usage
- To build the sample applications with this SDK a supported IDE must be installed (refer to Dependencies below)
- Install the simplelink_cc13xx_cc26xx_sdk_5_30_00_xx installer package on a supported host operating system build machine with Administrator privileges
- The default install path for Windows is C:\ti\simplelink_cc13xx_cc26xx_sdk_5_30_00_xx
- Changing the default install path and/or drive letter may require updating project variables. Do not use a space in the install path
- It is recommended to make a backup of the installation in order to revert modifications to the SDK
