In Mesh SDK 2.0.1 Light Switch Client demo is not working with interactive_pyaci

Ah, sorry. I confused this with a couple of other threads using the provisioner from the example (and not provisioning through the python interface).

Hi Dev-Q0003,

It should work. Make sure that you are clearing the modified database using the "example_database.json.backup" file.

Fromero.

I think that the solution proposed by Jing in this thread solves the problem since, without that change, the client is not successfully configured until the subscription address is added.

Hi Terje,

Thanks for your response, currently i have below configuration in light_switch_example_common.h

SERVER_NODE_COUNT which is more than 1 but still the issue is same. I'm using serial node interfaced to PC with interactive_pyaci as provisioner. I'm not using the provisioner example application. Our application doesn't need prevision example.

Best Regards,

Manoj

Hi,

This should not be necessary. The root cause of this and similar issues seems to be an off by one error related to the SERVER_NODE_COUNT define in light_switch_example_common.h. If you set it to one higher than the number of servers and closely follow the "Running the example" section of the Light switch demo documentation then everything should work as intended.

Alternatively, find in main.c of the provisioner example the comparisons "m_nw_state.provisioned_devices < SERVER_NODE_COUNT" and "m_nw_state.configured_devices < SERVER_NODE_COUNT". Replace "SERVER_NODE_COUNT" with "(SERVER_NODE_COUNT + CLIENT_NODE_COUNT)".

Regards,
Terje

Hi Jing,

The above solution works, Thank you! 🙂

I am facing one more issue with the above fix/solution, while testing Publishing and subscribing options.

I changed the state of the simpleOnOffServer from serial node (using interactive_pyaci .i.e sc.set(True), But this status change from simpleOnOffServer was not notified to SimpleOnOffClient (Light Switch Client Node). Please correct if i'm wrong.

It works! Thank you.

you have to modify the light switch example for it to send the simple_on_off message even when you only have a publication address configured.

something like what i did below...

static bool client_publication_configured(uint8_t i)
{
    dsm_handle_t pub_addr_handle;
    if (i < CLIENT_MODEL_INSTANCE_COUNT)
    {
        if (access_model_publish_address_get(m_clients[i].model_handle, &pub_addr_handle) == NRF_SUCCESS)
        {
            if (pub_addr_handle == DSM_HANDLE_INVALID)
            {
                return false;
            }
            return true;
        }
        else
        {
            return false;
        }       
    }
    else
    {
        return false;
    }
}

static void button_event_handler(uint32_t button_number)
{
    __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Button %u pressed\n", button_number);

#if 1
    if (client_publication_configured(button_number))
#else
    if (client_publication_configured())
#endif
    {
        uint32_t status = NRF_SUCCESS;
        switch (button_number)
        {
            case 0:
            case 1:
                /* send unicast message, with inverted GPIO pin value */
                status = simple_on_off_client_set(&m_clients[button_number],
                                                !hal_led_pin_get(BSP_LED_0 + button_number));
                break;

            case 2:
            case 3:
                /* send a group message to the ODD group, with inverted GPIO pin value */
                status = simple_on_off_client_set_unreliable(&m_clients[button_number],
                                                            !hal_led_pin_get(BSP_LED_0 + button_number),
                                                            GROUP_MSG_REPEAT_COUNT);
                hal_led_pin_set(BSP_LED_0 + button_number, !hal_led_pin_get(BSP_LED_0 + button_number));
                break;
            default:
                break;

        }

        if (status == NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE ||
            status == NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM ||
            status == NRF_ERROR_BUSY)
        {
            __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Cannot send. Device is busy.\n");
            hal_led_blink_ms(LEDS_MASK, LED_BLINK_SHORT_INTERVAL_MS, LED_BLINK_CNT_NO_REPLY);
        }
        else
        {
            ERROR_CHECK(status);
        }
    }
    else
    {
        __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Ignored. Node is not configured.\n");
    }
}
