Hi,

For Generic OnOff servers, scenes are already implemented (see <sdk folder>\nrf\subsys\bluetooth\mesh\gen_onoff_srv.c), so there is no need to manually implement it. The documentation at Adding scene data for a model is for reference if you need to implement the functionality for a custom model.

Make sure to add the Scene Server at the first element containing a Generic OnOff server which you want to include in the scene (or at an element before that), and check that configs (such as CONFIG_BT_MESH_SCENES_MAX) are appropriate.

For code reference for a device with a scene server added, see the Bluetooth Mesh: Light fixture sample, where the scene server is added using the BT_MESH_MODEL_SCENE_SRV macro in the elements listing near line 248 in <sdk folder>\nrf\samples\bluetooth\mesh\light_ctrl\src\model_handler.c.

Regards,
Terje
