Hi,

I'm working with nRF52832DK  board , nRF5_SDK_15.0.0 SDK  and nRF5SDK_Mesh2.2.0 Mesh SDK . verified the light_switch example project,i wanted to create beacons mesh network with  beaconing example, i compiled and flashed on to the DK board using segger embedded studio successfully.

  • Hi Satish, 

    The provisioner in light switch example was customized for light switch application. It only looking for devices with UUID that matches with light switch client and server. And the configuration is also customized for that application. 

    If you want the provisioner to provision your beacon example, you would need to modify the provisioner and the node_setup.c and the provisioner_helper.c to match with your application. 

    Another option is to use PyACI as a generic provisioner from a PC. You can provision and configure anything you want with the PyACI. Please follow the guide here. 

  • Hi hung bui,

    I have a question, what changes should do i need to do in the node_setup.c and provisioner_helper.c to provision beaconing device because they are the provisioner for light_switch example only right ? my doubt is that i need to provision my beacons to make the nodes talk as a relay mesh. my goal is to make the beacons to communicate in relay mesh. what should i do ?

    thanks in advance

  • Each application would require the provisioner to be customized for it (for example which group address the node should subscribe to, how many app key , etc ) Please study the node_setup.c and provisioner_helper.c 
    You can also use the generic provisioner, but that would require human interaction (or you can make a script) .
