But the establishment of connection by sending a connection request has to be done by the central. This means that the central has to be scanning once the peripheral starts the advertising. You can use scanning with whitelist to avoid the central to connect to other devices. You could try the following approach:</p> <ol> <li>Start scanning.&nbsp;</li> <li>Start advertising once your criteria for advertising has been met,</li> <li>Central connects once advertising packet has been received from peripheral in the whitelist.</li> <li>Data exchange</li> <li>Termination of link and go to sleep</li> </ol> <p>I would recommend reading our<a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/tutorials/b/bluetooth-low-energy"> tutorials on BLE </a>to get a better understanding of which callback functions you should use.</p> <p>Best regards</p> <p>Jared&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
