To do so, I installed nRFconnect and connected the board to the computer and it seems to be working just fine.

Normally, beacons are designed just to transmit advertising packets to the world ant that&amp;#39;s pretty much it. They are not designed to be connectable/configurable. However you can easily modify the beacon example and make it connectable, but as as far as i remember, Nordics beacon example was just for transmitting advertising packets. You can check another examples to see how to connect to the device, for example &lt;a href="http://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF51_SDK/nRF51_SDK_v7.x.x/doc/7.0.1/s110/html/a00054.html"&gt;ble_app_hrs&lt;/a&gt; example provided by Nordic.See setup for example location.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
