Hi
I have 1 PCA10040 dev kit and 1 Raspberry Pi 3.
If I connect NRF dongle to Raspberry Pi will Raspberry Pi act as mesh-node ?
All I want to do is send data from PCA10040 dev kit to raspberry pi via BLE Mesh.
Thanks in advance.

Hei Gecko,
Could you let me know which NRF Dongle you are using ?
We have the serial firmware (\examples\serial) that you can interface with the R-Pi via UART.
On the R-Pi you can either run your own UART program or use python as described here.
I am planning to use NRF52840 dongle.
Do you mean I should load serial program to R-PI via UART from NRF Dev kit ?
Will that enable mesh in the R-PI ?
To clear my doubt,All I want is Gateway(R-PI) with mesh enabled.Right now R-Pi has only bluetooth and not Mesh.

On the R-Pi there are 2 options.
Option A is to use the native BLE on the R-PI and you need to implement a mesh stack on it. This we don't provide.
Option B is to use the nRF52840 dongle. On the Dongle you run the serial firmware. And the R-PI you use UART to communicate with the nRF52840. Imagin the R-PI as the PC as in the link I sent to you.
