Using the Advertising Extensions ("InstaBurst!") feature for light_switch example?

[MMG]

Hi Nordic DevZone ,

I wanted to enable the new feature Advertising Extensions in the example application light_switch and see how it works, but unfortunately i can not active the feature and i dont know how i can do that , could you please help me with this?

i made some changes to the light_switch example so it make sense to use the Advertising Extensions feature, that is why i want to test it.

Thank you!

Hi,

I am very sorry for missing that!

Yes, we do indeed have a proprietary extension to Bluetooth Mesh, which uses Advertising Extensions from Bluetooth 5.

To use that feature in Segger Embedded Studio projects, you must:

1) Enable the EXPERIMENTAL_INSTABURST_ENABLED option in CMakeLists.txt, (by changing the setting from "OFF" to "ON".)

2) Rebuild the SES project files, as described in the "Generating SEGGER Embedded Studio project files" section of the Building the mesh stack documentation on Infocenter.

While I am sure it is possible to change the project manually in order to get this functionality up and running, I suspect it is easier to regenerate the example projects and then copy in the changes from your (backed up) project.

Regards,
Terje
