Continous scan and multi-role

[Niels Peter]

How does a multirole component behave if it is set to continous scan and advertising every 400 ms? This is pr. definition a contradiction!

My question is whether it is handled by the softdevice or the outcome is un-predictable?

I have a handset that is advertising every 40 ms, but the multi role central have periods in the extend of 500 ms without seeing an advertising from the handset.

As you say it's not possible to scan and advertise at the same time. If you need to do both things you need to make sure they are scheduled accordingly. You can read more about this in the softdevice specification here.
