Matter Litghtswitch example v2.6.0 not connecting to border router control system. (Smartthings Station )

[AMarch]

While experimenting with the v2.6.0 set of matter examples, it was noticed by an associate that the LightSwitch example doesn't seem to want to connect to any networks. This is compiled right in the directory C:\ncs\v2.6.0\nrf\samples\matter\light_switch. This is with the nrf52840-DK board, using the prj_no_dfu.conf and the standard overlay for the nrf52840 dk board. 

The Lightbulb example works fine, connects properly. Anyone seen this occur?

P.S. why doesn't the tags engine have a Matter  tag?

[Maria Gilje]

Hi A M,

At which point in the connection procedure does the device fail?

Please share the log from the DK from boot to unsuccessful connection.

Best regards,

Maria

P.S. I added a Matter tag manually for your ticket.

Sorry about the delay on this. 
This is the 2.6.0 version of the Matter Switch example. 


After starting the Binding, the above is shown on the serial output. After this, the connection will time out.

This is an nrf52840DK board, the no dfu build I believe.

oops, you asked for the full boot

I am guessing from the lack of response that no one else has seen this?

[Maria Gilje]

Hello,

I can confirm that I get the same log when booting the light switch v2.6.0 and I will continue to work on this.

Are you able to initiate the commissioning with one of the above methods from the log?

If you have a log from the Smartthings app this could be helpful too.

This can happen during first boot. See the comment in the relevant source file modules\lib\matter\src\app\clusters\bindings\BindingManager.cpp here.

Best regards,

Maria

Yeah, sorry nothing from the app, I am afraid. I really don't know if it has that kind of debug dump. That would be nice for them to have this kind of MODE but realistically, keeping the details out of general users hands is pretty much status quo.
