It is not used for monitoring. data transfer happens with the help of some network standards which uses some encryption techniques for providing security. Since it is an established std, u can't able to program it. Also, programmable zigbee devices were available in market nowadays..
 

so its just a standard communication protocol? like microwire?
thanks you both for answering
