Hi,
I have certain doubts regarding simple message model.
1. Why simple_message_client_init or simple_message_server_init is never used? Don't we need this function to bind model to the element?
2. I am sending a message from client to server. Can I receive it from simple_message_server.c and vice versa?
3. I could not understand how the model's functions can be used and how the communication takes place.
Hi Arya,
Mesh error 15 refers to NRF_ERROR_FORBIDDEN (see nrf_error.h). Do you have any idea where this error is called? What you can do is open the .map file in the build folder of your mesh example & find the location of 0x000267CD. It might be between two values.
Most likely it is an error when you initialize the simple_model_client_init(). If it is, then the error says that "Multiple model instances per element is not allowed" (see declaration of function in simple_on_off_client.h). What this means is that you are initializing the simple_on_off_model & the simple_message_model on the same element (i.e. element indexes 2,3,4).
I will double check about this internally & get back to you.
Are you trying to initialize the custom client or the custom server model? The custom model should be initialized similar to the simple_on_off_client model (i.e. via the simple_on_off_client_init() function), like you have done above.
Do you want four client models (e.g. one for each button) on the client board?
Kind Regards,
Bjørn
Hi Bjørn,
Sorry for the delay in reply. Error is coming from the function given below.
static void models_init_cb(void)
{
__LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Initializing and adding models1\n");
uint32_t status = 0;
for (uint32_t i = 0; i < CLIENT_MODEL_INSTANCE_COUNT; ++i)
{
m_clients[i].status_cb = client_status_cb;
m_clients[i].timeout_cb = client_publish_timeout_cb;
r_clients[i].status_cb = client_RSSI_status_cb;
r_clients[i].timeout_cb = client_publish_timeout_cb;
status = simple_on_off_client_init(&m_clients[i], i + 1);
ERROR_CHECK(status);
if(status == NRF_SUCCESS)
{
printf("NRF_SUCCESS\n");
}
ERROR_CHECK(access_model_subscription_list_alloc(m_clients[i].model_handle));
status = simple_RSSI_client_init(&r_clients[i], i + 2);
ERROR_CHECK(status);
if(status == NRF_SUCCESS)
{
printf("NRF_SUCCESS\n");
}
ERROR_CHECK(access_model_subscription_list_alloc(r_clients[i].model_handle));
}
}
error is in the 13th line of function given above. It executes once i.e when i = 0 and when i becomes one it gives an error at that point.
Output is:
NRF_SUCCESS NRF_SUCCESS <t: 7696>, app_error_weak.c, 105, Mesh error 15 at 0x000267CD
I could not find the address 0x000267CD in .map file.
As you said the error is "Multiple model instances per element is not allowed".
I have both custom server model as well as custom client model. Now I am trying to add custom client model. I am initializing my custom model like simple_on_off_client model. I have a function similar to that named simple_RSSI_client_init().
Sorry I could not understand this question.
"Do you want four client models (e.g. one for each button) on the client board?"
I don't have a clear idea about element index.I still have the above error. I changed some parameters in function element_has_model_id but no change.
Hi Bjørn,
It got resolved. I need only one switch for this model so I updated my function as this:
static void models_init_cb(void)
{
__LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Initializing and adding models1\n");
uint32_t status = 0;
for (uint32_t i = 0; i < CLIENT_MODEL_INSTANCE_COUNT; ++i)
{
m_clients[i].status_cb = client_status_cb;
m_clients[i].timeout_cb = client_publish_timeout_cb;
status = simple_on_off_client_init(&m_clients[i], i + 1);
ERROR_CHECK(status);
if(status == NRF_SUCCESS)
{
printf("NRF_SUCCESS\n");
}
ERROR_CHECK(access_model_subscription_list_alloc(m_clients[i].model_handle));
}
r_clients.status_cb = client_RSSI_status_cb;
r_clients.timeout_cb = client_publish_timeout_cb;
status = simple_RSSI_client_init(&r_clients, 0);
ERROR_CHECK(status);
if(status == NRF_SUCCESS)
{
printf("NRF_SUCCESS\n");
}
ERROR_CHECK(access_model_subscription_list_alloc(r_clients.model_handle));
}
changed this function too RSSI_server_index_get().
uint32_t index = p_client - &r_clients;
Also increased ACCESS_MODEL_COUNT. Now there is no error. Is this the correct way to do it? Assuming that this is the correct way to do it, how should I modify if I had more than one switch for this model?
Hi Bjørn,
Now I don't get all those errors. But I can not send a string message. I added one button to send message using app timer in each one second using the the same function of simple message model, except that I am using my own API now. But it is returning NRF_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM. I know that this is because publication address allocation problem. How can I set my address properly? Or is it because model is not bound to appkey? The function is as shown below.
void address_new_set(uint16_t addr) //setting address for sending message
{
ERROR_CHECK(dsm_address_publish_add(addr, &m_central_handle));
ERROR_CHECK(access_model_publish_address_set(r_server.model_handle, m_central_handle));
}
void send_new_message(void) //function for sending a simple message
{
uint32_t status=0;
uint8_t buffer[5] = "hello";
uint8_t length;
uint16_t address;
access_message_tx_t msg;
length = sizeof(buffer);
if(length)
{
address = 0xCAFE;
address_new_set(address);
SEGGER_RTT_printf(0,"Sending to group address 0x%04x\n", address);
status= simple_RSSI_client_set_unreliable(r_clients.model_handle, &buffer, GROUP_MSG_REPEAT_COUNT);
if(status == NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE ||
status == NRF_ERROR_BUSY||
status == NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM)
{
__LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Cannot send. Device is busy.\n");
hal_led_blink_ms(LEDS_MASK, 50, 4);
}
else
{
ERROR_CHECK(status);
}
}
}
I took this function from simple message model and modified it.
Could you please upload the logging information from the client & server? You can run a debugging session using Segger Embedded Studio & just copy the logging information directly from the debug terminal.
