Hi Naina,

I suggest you start with the Zigbee examples first. You can also find some cases related by search "Zigbee message" like the following:

(+) ZigBee communication -> sending messages from End-Device to Coordinator - Nordic Q&A - Nordic DevZone - Nordic DevZone (nordicsemi.com)

(+) [Zigbee] How a router can know the parrent is available before send a message - Nordic Q&A - Nordic DevZone - Nordic DevZone (nordicsemi.com)

Best regards,

Charlie

Thank You charlie for the reply.

Yes, I am trying to modify the examples. but sometimes when we add new features it is hard to find the exact files missing from just the error.

I want to get messages from the router role to the coordinator so that I can use the serial communication transfer these messages to the main board that does not support Zigbee. How do you recommend doing that?

Best Regards

Hi Naina,

1) A device can only play one of three roles at one time.

2) No, but normally you can start with one example and modify it for your usage. The existing example has finished most of the configuration work.

3) Zigbee networks use mesh topology already, you do not need to enable it through some particular macro.

4) nRF Connect SDK is based on Zephyr Project. You can learn the difference from nRF Connect SDK and nRF5 SDK statement. For the new development, nRF Connect SDK is strongly suggested.

I agree with you. My advice is to learn as much as you can, get help from Devzone when you meet any issue or have questions.

Best regards,

Charlie
