ZigBee sending and receiving string.

[kalbani]

I have been working and studying how zigbee protocol works, I start with coordinator, light bulb and light switch. it was fun example. However now I want to send the reading from temperate sensor to the coordinator because when I search in source code of switch example I found that the example send command with one byte. Any help please?

Other question is how can I form private zigbee network that cannot other devices connect to it. any ideas or example that can study from?

I'm using zephyr with 1.8.0 nrf SDK, with SEGGER IDE.

all devices are nrf52833dk.

Hi,

As a beginner, you could try referring to the CLI example in the SDK\examples\zigbee\experimental\cli\cli_agent_router. The test description is also available. Unfortunately, this is not available in the nRF Connect SDK as of now and you could use the nrf5 SDK. 

There is also the Multi-Sensor example which can help in sending and receiving data.

Zigbee networks are generally private and it's open only for a few minutes and then in order to add new nodes later, you need to open it again.

I would suggest you to begin with the CLI example and you can test how this behaves and learn more.
