nRF light switch Mesh example testing issue

[PEPL]

Hello,

Our setup:

IDE: Segger Embedded Studio for ARM V4.12, nRFgo studio

SDK: nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96 + SDK for Mesh3.1.0,

Softdevice: 6.1.1

Computer Platform: Windows 8 64 Bit

Hardwares: 1 NRF52 Development Board,  2 BT840E modules

RTT viewer:J-link RTT Viewer V6.40

We have prepared a customize circuit using BT840E module and we have used very limited pins which we required in our application...

To test with light mesh code we require LEDs to be turned on/off and the LEDs must be connected to pins same as in DK board..

We used two GPIOs  of BT840E modules  for LED and that are P1.00(pin 12) P0.13(pin 13)... but now with our setup there is no chance to connect extra LEDs externally...  

But with above setup we have tried light switch mesh example...

Steps we performed to test light switch mesh example: 

We have flashed soft device hex + light switch server hex to BT840E modules which is soldered on our customized hw board ... And Flashed soft device hex + light switch client hex to nRF52840 DK board ...  (note: we have erased all before flashing light mesh example hex)

Then we have performed mesh provisioning process from Android nrf mesh mobile app.. One by One we we set bind key, publish address(for client), and subscribe address(for server) etc (Note : provisioning (from mobile mesh app) one board other two are off )... Then we hit on connect tab on nrf mesh mobile app... 

we have not observed as mentioned below (link reference: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.meshsdk.v3.1.0%2Fmd_doc_getting_started_mesh_quick_start.html) 

• Server:
  • During provisioning process:
    • LED 3 and 4 blinking: Device identification active.
    • LED 1 to 4: Blink four times to indicate provisioning process is completed.
  • After provisioning and configuration is over:
    • LED 1: Reflects the value of OnOff state on the server.
      • LED ON: Value of the OnOff state is 1 (true).
      • LED OFF: Value of the OnOff state is 0 (false).
• Client:
  • During provisioning process:
    • LED 3 and 4 blinking: Device identification active.
    • LED 1 to 4: Blink four times to indicate provisioning process is completed.
  • After provisioning and configuration is over, buttons on the client are used to send OnOff Set messages to the servers:
    • Button 1: Send a message to the odd group (address: 0xC003) to turn on LED 1.
    • Button 2: Send a message to the odd group (address: 0xC003) to turn off LED 1.
    • Button 3: Send a message to the even group (address: 0xC002) to turn on LED 1.
    • Button 4: Send a message to the even group (address: 0xC002) to turn off LED 1.

• Provisioner:

  • Button 1: Start provisioning.
  • LED 1: Reflects the state of the provisioning.
    • LED ON: Provisioning of the node is in progress.
    • LED OFF: No ongoing provisioning process.
  • LED 2: Reflects the state of the configuration.
    • LED ON: Configuration of the node is in progress.
    • LED OFF: No ongoing configuration process.

We also tried to see logs in RTT viewer but nothing is so clear, what exactly is going on ... 

But we observed when we press 0 key from keyboard LED 1 on DK board turns on, And when we press 1 key on keyboard LED 1 turns off.. But nothing happens,no LED turns on/off, on server board(BT840E modules) when we press any Button 1,2,3,4 on client board(nRF52840 DK board) ...

"But nothing happens,no LED turns on/off, on server board(BT840E modules) when we press any Button 1,2,3,4 on client board(nRF52840 DK board) ..."
Isn't that the exact opposite of what you said in the first sentence?

We designed a customized controller board and embed a bt840E module to communicate over bluetooth using UART... And purchased a nrf52DK board.. 

 What I meant to say here  is We have used 3 devices, for mesh network devices,given different roles, i.e. 1 client node(DK Board - mesh switch) and 2 server nodes (BT840E modules(embed to controller boards) - mesh Light )

Now we want to check the internal communication between these 3 devices.... 

nrf52 DK board has 4 buttons and 4 LEDs... BT840E module has one LED connected to the GPIO pin same as LED1 on DK board.. 

According to Mesh set up,light switch example when we press a Button 1 from DK board(mesh switch in our case ) it should reflect to its other nodes  BT840E modules(mesh light in our case) by turning ON the LED.... 

For testing:

1) case: When I try to check the communication log on to RTT viewer to understand what logs generated when any activity done on DK baord loaded with light mesh example code,  DK board has usb interface so connected it with PC ... So when i press numeric key 0/1 from keyboard(PC keyboard) the DK board LED turns ON/OFF on DK  board LED1... 

2) case: Now we want to check what if we press Button 1 on DK board (As per light switch example when we press button 1 on dk board LED should be turned ON on BT840E module) what will happen on other nodes connected in mesh network.... but no activity observed on bt modules.... And here we observed that when we press Button 0/1 on DK board the RTT viewer shows the log that"Publication not configured for client 0" and "Publication not configured for client 1" respectively (with pc keyboard numeric key 0 and 1)..
