Serial profile for mesh

[Vibhu]

Hi Guys,

I am using nordic nrf52840 DK.

Is serial profile and UART different ?

If so, what is serial profile in nordic and how can I integrate mesh and serial profile ?

I used UART example where I am able to send anything from UART app to the NRF52840,

I want to do the same thing with mesh also.

I want to send command like that to Mesh nodes also. Is it possible ?

How should I do it ?

I am using mesh V3.1.0

and sdk v15.2.0.

Thanks,

Vibhu.

Hi,

I think the UART Coexistence example is what you are looking for. This example let you simulate a button press over UART, and then sends a message to a mesh node. What do you mean by serial profile?

In the UART Coexistence example, I am using a phone as a provisioner and provisioned a Server and a Client.

Now if I send a command from UART app in phone  to client it will turn on the LED in the Server right ?

Will I be able to have as many clients as I want ? say 6 or 7?

My requirement is that I want to send a command to any particular node in the mesh using the UART.

If I have more than one client will that act as a mesh and if one client is not in range will multihop happen ?

Or only it can communicate to server ?

And by serial profile I meant the node should be detected in the UART app provided by nordic.
