Do I have to call sd_ble_gap_scan_start after sd_ble_gap_connect to be able to scan in central role?

[Al Bundy]

When I connect to another beacon using sd_ble_gap_connect() scanning on my device is stopped. I have to wait till connection is established or establishing connection fails and then call sd_ble_gap_scan_start() to start scanning again. Can I make softdevice to scan all the time, even after calling function sd_ble_gap_connect()?

It is not possible. Calling sd_ble_gap_connect() will automatically stop a scanning procedure that is currently in progress.
