How to turn on/off mesh

[sphudson]

I am using the RBC mesh in a networking product using the nRF51422. We would like to turn the mesh on and off at selected times, say once per hour for a minute or two. I know how to turn on (init) the mesh. But, what is the best way to turn it off such that the radio is at minimal power?

Thanks in advance --s

Aryan, My last comment got deleted for some reason. The problem is that ts_sd_event_handler() is never called. Can you please provide some clues as to why it isn't being called? Thanks -stan

I am not sure, is there any events that you were expecting?

The framework now supports start/stop actions for the radio activity, see release v0.6.9. Note that this only stops radio activity, while the memory remains allocated and local functionality is kept.

It works by aborting the running timeslot, and stops all ordering of new ones from the Softdevice.

Thank you very much, Trond!

Does it mean that devices with turned off mesh is working like ZigBee end node? Only listening and not participating in forwarding messages? I would like to have mesh end nodes running on battery and some routers with no power constraints .
