Dongle is zigbee compatible ?

Open faronov opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Hi I buy this dongle and try to use nRF5 Zigbee SDK I'm able successfully to build and flash examples but when it starts ZigBee part it always freezes I didn't find any information, about ZigBee compatibility on your site

Does this mean that dongle not compatible with Nordic Zigbee SDK?

@faronov Hi, it should be compatible with nRF5 Zigbee SDK as this dongle is based on the same nRF52840 chip. Our ZigBee examples are under construction and currently you can refer to Nordic's Zigbee SDK docs for more details.

I compile ZigBee app cli example when I start it as a router or coordinator with command

bdb role zc
bdb start

the last line says that the coordinator is started after that module is not responded

I use PCA10059, maybe I must change something in sdk_config for compatibility?

@uKev Yes, the nRF52840 supports Zigbee. You can find the examples in nRF Connect SDK or use the Zigbee SDK:
