Implementing sensor model with bluetooth mesh

[MH1]

I need to implement sensor network with bluetooth mesh having three nodes. Two nodes would be STEVAL-IDB007V1 boards and one of the node would be smartphone which is used to display sensor data from two nodes (STEVAL-IDb007V1) . It is required to collect data from two sensors e.g. pressure and temperature sensor and then send it to smartphone for display.

I installed BlueNRG-mesh software package but it only contains lighting demo example. Can you please let me know is it possible to implement sensor server model using this BlueNRG-mesh software libraries ? If yes, can you please guide a little about it ?

Hello MH,

Do you need to comply to the Sensor Model as defined in the Mesh Model specifications or, is it ok to manage through using the Vendor model example already available in the SDK ?

As per internal estimate, the Official release of Sensor Model will be available by Dec'18. However, the Vendor model is available already and we can provide you the steps to use this for your application.

Let us know your opinion please so as to provide best way forward

Thanks

Hello alok,

It is ok for me to use the available vendor model. I tried to do it using ReadRemoteData() function in BlueNRG-Mesh app, then implemented the sensor read commands inside Vendor_ReadLocalDataCb() on SDK and read the data on app through OnResponse() callback. However, kindly let me know the steps if I am missing any.

Also, I would like to display the sensor data on app. Can you please guide me which functions and files do I need to edit for this purpose on BlueNRG-Mesh app as it is hard to understand the complete flow of program since there are many files.

Thanks.
