ZigBee Coordinator and BLE peripheral

[abe]

Hi to all, I'm developing a new device that should be a multiprotocol: Zigbee (as coordinator) and BLE peripheral (with his own GATT)
There is an example for this integration?
Many thanks for answer

Hi Abele.

You can look at any of the multiprotocol Zigbee examples, and define this in the zigbee_init() function.

For example, in examples\multiprotocol\ble_zigbee\ble_zigbee_dynamic_light_switch_nus\main.c and zigbee_init(), you  have:

    /* Set up Zigbee protocol main parameters. */
    zb_set_network_ed_role(IEEE_CHANNEL_MASK);
    zigbee_erase_persistent_storage(ERASE_PERSISTENT_CONFIG);

zb_set_network_ed_role() defines this device to be an end device.

If you want this device to be a coordinator you have to change zb_set_network_ed_role() to zb_set_network_coordinator_role(), and also add zb_set_max_children(10 for example).

You also have to change the included library. For a coordinator libzboss.a should be included, for a end device libzboss.ed.a should be included.

Best regards,

Andreas
