Merging sensor/server with ble_app_uart_coexist (52840 DK). Won't finish provisioning.

[ccasebeer]

Hi

I've taken the ble_app_uart_coexists and ported it to the 52840 DK with S140 softdevice.

Works great.

Now I am trying to swap out the on/off mesh model for what is done in the sensor/server example.

However, I seem to be hanging during provisioning with the static provisioner and I don't know why.

Can I take the sensor/server/nrf_mesh_config_app.h unaltered into my project?

Any hints on debugging this?

Nordic SDK is 17.0.2

Mesh SDK is 5.0

Regards.

Hi,

The static provisioner is hard coded to configure each example from the SDK in a particular way, and if you change the models of the example there will be a mismatch regarding what the provisioner expects. Each example uses a unique Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), and the provisioner configures the node based on what URI it has. You can read more about that in the documentation for the Provisioner Example on Infocenter.

Before changing the provisioner example into configuring your new node, I recommend configuring the node manually with the nRF Mesh app. Once you get it to work with the smartphone app it would be easier to know what to do with the static provisioner. If anything fails when using the app, it should also be easier to pinpoint the issue.

Regards,
Terje

I was under the impression I could not use PG-GATT provisioning (nRF Mesh IOS App) to provision:

From the ble_app_uart_coexist docs:

Software requirements

This example does not support PB-GATT for provisioning. For this purpose, use the static provisioner example: <InstallFolder>/examples/provisioner. See the provisioner example page for more information.

Would this help at all?

This is about as far on the static provisioner as I can get:

This is about as far on the sensor/server (merged to ble_app_uart_coexist)

Any advice appreciated on this.

I did find a couple MESH debug defines which might allow me a better debug on this problem.

Again, it seems to fail in provisioning of the new merged sensor/server merged to ble_app_uart_coexist.

PROV_DEBUG_MODE in /mesh/prov/src/prov_provisionee.c seems helpful. I'll turn that on and get a trace with that.

Thanks.

Hi,

Terje is out of office at the moment, have you solved your problem? If not can you create a new case?

Best regards,
Kaja

[ccasebeer]

CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_APP_IN_CORE

Oddly enough, that got my provisioning going and removed my seemingly flash errors.

Make sure you grab that define for coexistence.

Thanks for all the help.

[Kaja]

Great! Glad to hear that your problem is solved!

Best regards,
Kaja
