Toggle lightness with one button only.

Hi, I'm a beginner at this so I would appreciate any help thank you! 

I'm trying out light_lightness example v4.2.0. 

From RTT Viewer, I want the LED to be able to toggle between 0 to max brightness when I only send the value 1. Is it possible?

Hello! Sorry about the delay!

Yes, I think that can be done. Though first of all, keep in mind that the light_lightness example is a mesh example, in order for you to develop mesh networks of multiple lights. For the light lightness server to light up, it could be more relevant to use a mesh message sent from the client. See the documentation here for more info.

If you wanted something more focused on the LED lighting up part then I would recommend the Blinky example.

I just wanted to ask you and make sure.

Best regards,

Elfving

Yes, I have taken a look at the Blinky example, but that does not use buttons to toggle the LED.

I want to turn on the LED on the light_lightness example using buttons, and send a message to the client that I have lit up a button on the server. So how do I do this?

Hey again!

I see you are already getting help from Martin about this on case 280548. I'll end this one then.

Best regards,
