Great contribution!
I didnt realize that there was a pin controlling whether Zigbee and/or RS232 input is on/off.

There has been a number of Threads/Posts dealing with how the CM5 Serial Port Cable and the ZIG-100 relate in terms of sending data. As Mark Pepper's schematic shows when the CM5 transmits it goes out on both the CM5 Cable and the ZIG-100 channel, you have no choice/control its hardwired.

Input however is a switched. I do not believe it is possible to get input from via the CM5 cable into a BCP Program (If someone knows how I would be interested!), you can get ZIG-100 input.

It is possible to get input from the CM5 Cable and/or the ZIG-100 in C. The code below demos this.
