Ensure the right device type is set for each endpoint.
all-clusters-app as an example, this can be set in FIXED_DEVICE_TYPES, FIXED_DEVICE_TYPE_OFFSETS, and FIXED_DEVICE_TYPE_LENGTHS in endpoint_config.hall-clusters-app (feel free to search for more in the tree by looking for the above keys)Example:
// Array of device types
#define FIXED_DEVICE_TYPES
{
{ 0x0016, 1 }, { 0x0100, 1 }, { 0x0100, 1 }, { 0xF002, 1 }
}
// Array of device type offsets
#define FIXED_DEVICE_TYPE_OFFSETS
{
0, 1, 2, 3
}
// Array of device type lengths
#define FIXED_DEVICE_TYPE_LENGTHS
{
1, 1, 1, 1
}
