Hi Thanos,

[quote user="thanos"]It is highly possible that the CSA support meant 'zboss stack' and not 'zuth stack'. [/quote]

Our Zigbee add-on is based on the ZBOSS stack, so this should not be a problem if that is the case.

[quote user="thanos"]I have also nRF52840 DKs that, I think, work directly with the sample apps, is this correct?[/quote]

Yes, the nRF52840 DK is supported out of the box. You can see which development kits are supported under the requirements section in the documentation for each sample:

The samples might also work with other boards, but the boards listed are the ones we test.

[quote user="thanos"]

Ok, if you say that, e.g. the light bulb example would work with ZUTH, I just need to find out how, because I don't 'see' it in the device list.

What do you mean by not seeing it in the device list? Is this in the ZUTH client or something else?

Best regards,
Marte

Hi there Marte,

Hi Thanos,

I have not heard of a specific ZUTH stack before.

Any of our samples should be possible to use with ZUTH, but I recommend either the light bulb or light switch sample. If you are new to the nRF Connect SDK, I recommend checking out our nRF Connect SDK Fundamentals course on DevAcademy, specifically Lesson 1 Exercise 2, which shows how to build an application.

Since the samples do not support the nRF52840 dongle, you might have to modify them.

Best regards,
Marte

Hi Marte,

many thanks for the reply.

You are right, at the moment I want to make sure my ZUTH setup is working properly so I don't have any specific features I after testing.

I do have the Silicon Labs devices programmed as the golden reference (as per CSA instructions, it seems that, unlike Thread, Zigbee test harness only supports Silabs for reference devices) and I would like to hook some DUTs on and try my first tests. That's where I need your help, how to program a Nordic device to work as a ZUTH DUT.

CSA support suggested that I can use 'any vendor that provides ZUTH stack' in order to prepare a DUT. However, I haven't heard about ZUTH stack before, is this something that Nordic provides?

Many thanks again.

Hi Thanos,

We do not have a dedicated sample for ZUTH test harness. What sample to use depends on what you want to test. Can you explain more about what you want to achieve with the test? Is it for certification purposes or just to test the ZUTH test harness? Do you have any specific features you want to test?

Best regards,
Marte

Hi there Marte,

Thank you for your advice, indeed I installed the latest nRF Connect SDK and the Zigbee R23 add on and I was able to build and flash zigbee examples.

However, I am still after some kind of Zigbee Test Client App in order to use with the ZUTH test harness. Could you help with this? Can one of the examples in the Zigbee R23 add-on be used as a test client application?

The available samples are :

light bulb
light switch
ncp
network_coordinator
shell
template

which should I use for the ZUTH test harness?

Many thanks

Thanos

Hi Thanos,

It seems like you are using the nRF5 SDK. This SDK is deprecated and not recommended for development.

You should use the nRF Connect SDK instead. This SDK provides Zigbee as an add-on. For more information, see the Zigbee R23 add-on for the nRF Connect SDK.

Best regards,
Marte
