Thread CLI not working in BC840DK

Hi,

The UART pins are hardcoded in the OpenThread libraries. To change the UART pins, you need to rebuild the libraries according to the instructions in Building the latest OpenThread libraries.

The pins must be configured in transport-config.h.

Best regards,
Jørgen

Hi,

For nRF5 SDK for T&Z v4.0.0, the UART pin config is located in the file platform-config.h.

The libraries needs to be recompiled for each board unfortunately, it is not possible to configure UART pins in the board headers in nRF5 SDK. For nRF Connect SDK, the OpenThread source files are (if configured) built for each project, which means that it can get the UART pin config directly from the build/configuration system.

Best regards,
Jørgen

I worked on DCDC

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    log_init();
    scheduler_init();
    timer_init();
    /* LOW POWER SETUP */
    int err_code = sd_power_mode_set(NRF_POWER_MODE_LOWPWR);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    err_code = sd_power_dcdc_mode_set(NRF_POWER_DCDC_ENABLE);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    thread_instance_init();
    thread_coap_init();
    thread_bsp_init();
   

    while (true)
    {
        thread_process();
        app_sched_execute();

        if (NRF_LOG_PROCESS() == false)
        {
            thread_sleep();
        }
    }
}

got error

By default, this example does not use a softdevice.

Try writing directly to the register in start of main instead:

NRF_POWER->DCDCEN = 1;

ok thank you

Hi Jorgen

I tried

NRF_POWER->DCDCEN = 1;
NRF_POWER->DCDCEN0 = 1;

in FTD Thread coAP example but

power it still 11.67mA.

I understand this ticket not cover this but this is my last query .

1. How to access low power using register access

 /* LOW POWER SETUP */
    int err_code = sd_power_mode_set(NRF_POWER_MODE_LOWPWR);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    err_code = sd_power_dcdc_mode_set(NRF_POWER_DCDC_ENABLE);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

2. Is there any examples or documentation that how to use or build full project using registers Like (accessing clock, RTC, TWI,SPI,UART,LED Peripherals IO)

3. I have gone through MTD CoAP example . my understand is it will work only as child . it will not be router or leader any more. and it will not do auto commissioning . if so how to commission the device to set it as child or leader or router.

4. If device is leader or router then it will consume more power?

1. the proposal from Jørgen is how to enable dcdc using registry access. can you try to read out the register value using a debugger to chek if it was set successfully? I assume you have the required components to enable dcdc?

2. The nRF5 SDK has separate examples for each peripheral that you could merge with the thread examples.

3. Please refere to the Thread commissioning documentation

4. Yes, it will.

Hi,

yes i need to enable dcdc?

how to read the register value using debugger

2. i want to work these examples with register level programming is there any example like this

3 . i will go through it

Hi, Is Thread CLI example have any data to store in flash. and why its having . it double on every power reset.

Hi have you seen this . after power reset every time some data is writing in flash and why?

Openthread stores some persistant data in memory, see OpenThread memory layout and requirements, Like Thread commissioning data etc.

Ok but every power rest it doesn't over write on same address it extend memory

I need to add some data in flash storage so i have tried to implement flash fstorage here.

i receive error like
