diag not working

[RoboJoe]

i am using VS code, nrf Connect SDK version 1.7.0, (2) nrf 5340 DK boards. Running the CLI example.

uart:~$ ot diag start

failed

error 13 invalid state

uart:~$ ot diag

diagnostic mode is disabled

done

How do I enable diagnostics?

Which CLI example were you running on 5340`? I can give it a try on the uart to quickly test it.

nrf/samples/openthread/cli

I did get diagnostics to work. I had the openthread enabled when the diagnostics cannot be enabled.  I disabled the open thread and the diagnostics could then be enabled and used.
