Have you read the case I pointed to ? the case tells you how to disable mesh properly.

I understand Hung , But the issue is even if i put nrf52 ro sleep the radio is active, It is listening to incomming messages. What i want is the radio shud be off and likewise all the pripherals.It shud only wakeup using the timer.

If you stop mesh and start it properly, you should be able to put CPU to sleep with sd_app_evt_wait().

You can have a look here.

where can i get the apis for sleep functionality, I see sd_app_evt_wait() in the main function which i suppose is for power optimization or some kind of sleep. I wanna know all kinds of sleep options.Because if sd_app_evt_wait is doing the task then there is no need to use a separate timer i might as well just timer my publication.

Please share the link also

thanks hung u r awsome

You can just stop mesh, put the CPU to sleep and set a timer. You can let it sleep up to 96 hours without problem. If you sleep for more than 96 hours you would need to perform IV Index recovery. Please refer to the spec.

Please note that, you can't put too many nodes into sleep, mesh requires relay nodes to operate. So only the leaf node can sleep.

Another option is to use Low Power Node, but that requires you to establish a friendship.

okay thats done , Now suppose i want to make the controller sleep for some hours and then wakeup for some time do something and sleep again , What is the best way to do it?

Hi Brijesh,

By spec , there should be one publication address at a time. You can have multiple subscription address, but one publication address.

Note that you can choose destination address freely when you access the access layer. The publication /subscription is only applied for model. You can get rid of that by using the access layer directly , then you can send the message to any where you like. But of course with that you may lose interoperability to other vendor.

the app allows only one publish address per mode. I can try to do it via the code but just wanna know wether its possible via the app

Its fine now I provisioned using the app it was easy.But i wanna know can i publish to multiple addresses using a same model

the problem i am facing now is that i have 3 client nodes and 1 server

i am separately able to send messages from each client bt when i wanna send message to a specific client that's an issue,I have to change publication address every time

Hi Brijesh,

Could you check which rx_opcode has status code 2 ? Just printout rx_opcode in the same "opcode status field:" log in check_expected_status()

RE: How to provision 2 clients nodes?

Brijesh — Wed, 20 Mar 2019 08:39:20 GMT

There is something wrong in this check_expected_status()

you can take light switch example and in the client you can modify the message packet in the structure. Then do the same inside the server side,

try to do all this in a button event handler for understanding purpose.

ANd better open a new ticket with elaborate descrption of ur problem. FYI send a string is an easy task if u are beginning now there are way more bigger problems . In those cases nodic team wil help u

I followed the steps and provisioning was success ful bt configuration was not.

this is the terminal output

<t: 1016259>, access_reliable.c, 438, ----- Success p_reliable->model_handle=2---
<t: 1017062>, main.c, 353, Config client event
<t: 1017064>, node_setup.c, 262, opcode status field: 0
<t: 1017067>, node_setup.c, 387, App key bind: 0x1002 server
<t: 1017077>, access_reliable.c, 438, ----- Success p_reliable->model_handle=2---
<t: 1044031>, main.c, 353, Config client event
<t: 1044033>, node_setup.c, 262, opcode status field: 2
<t: 1044036>, main.c, 294, Configuration of device 1 failed. Press Button 1 to retry.

Does it have anything to do with the client instance on my 2nd node?

I am sending a message packet which have a few sensor values.

Hi Brijesh,

The easiest way of doing this is to use a phone to do provisioning. If the node supports PB-GATT (which the light switch supports) you can use the nRFMesh app on the phone to do provisioning.

1. You need to increase the number of clients to be provisioned in the provisioner in addition.

2. If in check_network_state() you change else if (m_nw_state.provisioned_devices == 0) to else if (m_nw_state.provisioned_devices <2) and CLIENT_NODE_COUNT to 2 in the provisioner code , it should work.

Above is for provisioning phase, in configuration phase you would need to update setup_select_steps() so that mp_config_step = client_config_steps; will be assigned for the first 2 devices not just the first one. You can change if (addr == UNPROV_START_ADDRESS) to if (addr < UNPROV_START_ADDRESS+2) so first two device being provision will be configured as the client.
