how to use serial example in mesh SDK?

[Ricky]

I get nrf mesh SDK form: http://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/Bluetooth-low-energy/nRF5-SDK-for-Mesh/(language)/eng-GB

I want to use the serial example to control a mesh network, but there are 2 problem for me:

1. how to use the python files in .\nrf5_SDK_for_Mesh_v0.10.1-Alpha_src\tools\serial_doc\ ?

2. how to debug or test the serial example? I want to use PC via uart to send command to it, or there is a way via SEGGER Embedded Studio to debug or run it?

Thanks.

Have you taken a look at the infocenter regarding using the python files? You should be able to use the file "serial_doc_gen_pyaci.py" using Interactive pyACI.

Depending on which nrf52 dk you have, you can open up either the "serial_nrf52832_xxAA_s132_5_0_0" or "serial_nrf52840_xxAA_s140_5_0_0-3_alpha" emproject. As the names clearly show, the first one is for the nrf52832 and the second one is for the nrf52840. Regarding running & debugging, I would take a look at this youtube video. An application engineer at Nordic made a whole series of videos which gives a great introduction to segger embedded studio.

Which mesh SDK are you currently using? 0.9.2, 0.10.0 or 0.10.1? Let me take a look at this and get back to you.

Hi koustubhavachat. Sorry for the delayed response. Could you explain to me the detailed steps you are taking to try to run the mesh serial example? Maybe this case might be helpful.
