my nrf beacons advertise non connectable signal

[Neshat]

I programmed my nrf51822 with one the hex sample files that are existed in the nordic package. toolbox app can find my beacons but cannot connect to them and with nrf connect app, I can see a non connectable item shown in the app. can anyone tell me what is happening and how should I solve it?

That's the way beacons generally work!

See devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

Think of the general meaning of the word "beacon" - it's a thing that just constantly sends out a signal for anything/anyone in range to see/hear ...

but when I check my beacon data with nrf connect app it says: serviceuuid N/A txpower N/A

and when I try to write an ios app to connect to my beacon, I cant! these data kinda made feel like there is something wrong with my beacons that i cannot understand.
