Hi,

You can't set a custom access adress for advertisements using s132. The advertisement access adress is defined to be similar so that different devices can connect to eachother.

Best regards,

Øyvind

Thank you for the answer. One follow up question: Is it possible to change the access address of advertising messages somehow, using sdk11 and s132 softdevice? The mesh I wish to advertise into is using a custom access address.

Hello.

This is possible. You must assign a value handle to the device, and make sure that this device is the only one sending values on that handle. The device must then increment the handle version for each new value it sends out.

Then you can only advertise values into the mesh, and not scan for new versions and values.

You can also, if you want, connect to another node using normal BLE. Then you can write to its mesh service to communicate with the mesh.
