Thanks I will give a try but I found another solution could you also verify:

by using timeslot_stop(); and timeslot_start(); functions before nrf_mesh_disable and nrf_mesh_enable, It give me the required behavior but I am still testing for some time to catch if any possible bug found after hours of testing.

Hi.

Sorry for the late reply, I've looked a bit more into this, can you try the following for enable/disable mesh:

Disable mesh:

uint32_t retval = proxy_stop();

            if (retval == NRF_SUCCESS)

            {

                scanner_disable();

                retval = nrf_mesh_disable();

            }

     __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Disabling mesh: status: %d\n", retval);

Enable mesh:

 scanner_enable();

            uint32_t retval = proxy_enable();

            if (retval == NRF_SUCCESS)

            {

                retval = proxy_start();

            }

 

            if (retval == NRF_SUCCESS)

            {

                retval = nrf_mesh_enable();

            }

 

            __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Enabling  mesh: status: %d\n", retval);

These two code snippets should be the proper sequence to disable/enable mesh according to an expert.

Best regards,

Andreas

Thanks but I want to have minimum power consumption so I used the following commands;

static void mesh_evt_handler(const nrf_mesh_evt_t * p_evt)
{
    if (p_evt->type == NRF_MESH_EVT_DISABLED)
    {
      __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "----- BLE SDH OFF -----\n");
      //volatile uint8_t a=1;
      nrf_sdh_suspend();                                          //Disable Soft device
    }

}

int main(void) {
  initialize();
  m_mesh_evt_handler.evt_cb = mesh_evt_handler;
  nrf_mesh_evt_handler_add(&m_mesh_evt_handler);
  
  
  //code continue
  
  while(1){
  
  //...
  nrf_mesh_disable();
  //wait till sdh power off
  
  
  //...
  nrf_sdh_resume();              //enable Soft device   
  uint32_t err_code = nrf_mesh_enable();
  APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
  
  
  }
  
 }

Hi.

When you say "disable the mesh", do you mean starting and stopping the advertising?

You can use the two API'S mesh_adv_start() and mesh_adv_stop() for that.

/**
 * Starts advertising connectable advertisements.
 *
 * @note This call will assert if the advertisement data has not been set.
 */
void mesh_adv_start(void);

/**
 * Stops the connectable advertisements.
 */
void mesh_adv_stop(void);

Best regards,

Andreas
