how to configured PA/LNA in mesh sdk

Hello,We have tested the mesh v2.1.1 in the nRF52830 chip, I want to  add a PA/LNA with the nRF52832 so that range anxiety can be reduced.we successfully configured and tested this external PA with ble5.0 ,
but when i tried in any example of MESH SDK with our customized configured pins it is not working.
Secondly as u have mentioned that there are two stacks .so should i use two calls separately for enabling PA/LNA
i.e., mesh_pa_lna_gpiote_enable(&m_pa_lna_params);  //FOR MESH
and sd_ble_opt_set();   // for BLE stack.
but I don,t how to initialization "m_pa_lna_params" parament.
can I help me how to configured PA/LNA for MESH
and the second question  I want to the mesh v1.0.1 alse support PA/LNA.

  • Regarding your first question, PA/LNA documentation was updated in the mesh sdk v2.2.0, but I believe you should be able to use this documentation to get PA/LNA to work in mesh sdk v2.1.1. This case may also be helpful.

    You could also consider increasing the TX power on the 52832 from 0 to 4 dBm. Take a look at this case for more info.

    Regarding your second question, this is not a good idea, as the mesh v1.0.1 is outdated. In addition, this mesh sdk does not have a Bluetooth Mesh qualified stack, which means you could not get a product Bluetooth Mesh qualified. If you are using v1.0.1 in development, I would strongly urge you to migrate to at least the v2.0.1 mesh sdk (see the migration guide in the v2.0.1 mesh sdk download).

  •  thank you,we successfully configured and tested this external PA with mesh_v2.2.0,but I want to mesh  have provisioner and client two ROLE,but mesh_v2.2.0 have provisioner  or client,so I use mesh_v1.0.1(it is provisioner and client two roles)。mesh_v2.2.0(provisioner) how to  have provisioner and client two roles,thanks
