nrf9160 - lwm2m_Client (queue mode)

Hkhan7861

Good day

I am currently trying to a create a lwm2m client to use with my custom board.  When I have queue mode enabled and the device is sleeping, i use the lwm2m_send function and get a very high power consumption.  I have found  that the program hangs before getting this on the logging:

[00:19:30.532,806] <inf> net_lwm2m_engine: Connected, sock id 0

I have also attributed this to:

zsock_connect(client_ctx->sock_fd, &client_ctx->remote_addr, addr_len) 
when the client attempts to re-establish a connection   (lwm2m_engine_connection_resume), this function takes a while to complete it causes the high power consumption.  For a better understanding, I will post the power consumption while using and not using queue mode:
I have noticed that in queue mode,  a registration update is triggered.  However, the high power consumption occurs during the above mentioned process.  Is there a way that I can avoid as queue mode is essential for my project as I would like to send requests from the server while the device is sleeping.
Thank you in advance
Kind regards,
Hassan

    Hello Hassan,

    Due to the summer vacation period we are currently understaffed, so delayed replies must be expected. I am sorry about any inconvenience this might cause.

    Hello Hassan,

    Could you provide the build/zephyr/.config file for both of those situations?

    Modem traces would be very helpful as well.

    Best regards,

    Good day

    I will get those to you soon I can. I would just like to ask how to do modem tracing on RTT since moving to  cellular monitor?  I inly have access to RTT and am hoping if that is possible?

    Kind regards,

    Hassan

    Yes, it is possible to collect the modem trace via RTT, as shown in the documentation.

    Best regards,

    Hi Michal

    I have a nrf9160DK and im using it as a JLink programmer.  I can use it for RTT logging fine but when I try to do the same thing to get a modem trace, I don't receive anything through the trace.
