RE: Questions about SDK for mesh

Hey Gabriel! Sorry about the delay.

1. I am a bit uncertain about this, it would also vary on the type of Mesh node / features being used. And it would also depend on your current application, as in how much you would want it to be "translated" into elements and models etc. This thread and response by Hung might help you out though.

2. Yes, this is possible, and it is handled by a gateway or something like the enOcean example, which is also included in the network.

3. This is hard to say, as the maximum distance would depend on the amount of obstructions in the way etc. To be safe I'd say about 10 meters in an indoor environment.

4. You wouldn't have to switch to mesh DFU, though it does have its merits in that it can run in the background, and that you don't have to update them one by one. Though you should note that what we have available is not a BT compliant DFU solution, but our own proprietary one.

5. We do have a Mesh DFU example available if that is what you mean. And any device can subscribe to several addresses on the mesh network, however only the ones they are subscribed to.

6. This is possible, that is what a gateway is for.

7. Yes, the friend feature is just an addition to the rest. They are still able to relay, advertise etc.

Let me know if there is anything else!

Best regards,

Elfving
