Using the Manufacturing Library for EmberZNet#

NOTE: This section replaces AN1162: Using the Manufacturing Library for EmberZNet. Further updates to this application note will be provided here.

This application note describes how to use the manufacturing library and its associated components in Simplicity Studio for performing RF tests during the characterization and manufacturing phases.

Note: Zigbee EmberZNet SDK 7.0 introduced a new component-based architecture, along with a Project Configurator and other tools to replace AppBuilder and plugin configuration. In general, the new software components are comparable to the plugins. Unless otherwise specified, the term 'component' should be understood to refer to the corresponding plugin, if you are working in SDK 6.10.x or lower. When applicable, instructions for both version 7.0 and higher and 6.10.x and lower are provided. For more information, see AN1301: Transitioning from Zigbee EmberZNet SDK 6.x to SDK 7.x.

Silicon Labs recommends that you be familiar with creating example applications as described in the following quick-start guides
