Creating a mesh without external applications (mobile or PC)

[MaxK]

Hello everyone!

I'm trying to build a project of gathering the information from several temperature/pressure/humidity sensors and sending it to one display.

Sensors will be spread across the building and all be in the mesh. There should also be a possibility to add a new sensor to the mesh. I think the nRF52840 is a good choice for that, but there is still one question that I haven't solved yet before starting to play with boards, sensors and mesh itself:

- Is it possible to pair BT devices (in my case sensors) to make them nodes of the mesh without using any external applications (like mobile apps or PC apps etc.)? For instance press the button on the existing node, then on the new one and it becomes the part of the mesh... or any other suggestions?)

- If yes, are there any examples of such pairing ?

Thanks a lot in advance

Yes, we do have such an example. Take a look at the static provisioner example (nrf5_SDK_for_Mesh_v3.1.0_src\examples\light_switch\provisioner), along with the provided documentation here.
