But you are correct, the s130 allows the device to be both a central and peripheral device. Only an alpha version is available right now, but I&#39;ve used it quite a lot, and it works great! If you have a product key for an nrf51822 or nrf51422 device, you can log in on nordicsemi.com and download the s130 there (it&#39;s listed under &quot;My Page&quot; -&gt; &quot;My Keys&quot; -&gt; &quot;Protected Downloads&quot;)</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
