How to send data from UART over mesh

[Arij]

Hi,

I'm working on a project where i need to send data like this way : 

PC(Terminal) -> node (app_uart_get()) -> relay node 1 -> relay node 2 -> node(app_uart_put())->PC(Terminal).

I already merged light switch example with uart example but now i'm stuck on how sending data from UART over mesh.

Any idea on how to do that?

Thank you

This devzone case might be useful for you. It will enable you to broadcast a message to all nodes.

Yes, I'm following this tutorial at this moment but in my case i have to set the address to a unicast address and not a boroadcast address

I am not fully sure, but I believe that is the only change you need to do. Let me know if it works.

Would you please tell me how to define a unicast address ?

[Bjørn Kvaale]

You can see how the unicast address NRF_MESH_ADDRESS_TYPE_UNICAST is defined inside the case PROV_STATE_CONFIG_PUBLICATION_ONOFF inside provisioner.c in the light switch client example. The different types of mesh addresses are defined inside the enum nrf_mesh_address_type_t in the nrf_mesh.h header file.

Thank you, i will do that and let you know if it works
