@Peter: The S110 (peripheral) stack is not made to be able to scan for a device. You can think of having one device running S120 (central stack) to scan for the other device running S110. If you want the central device be able to be peripheral also, you can think of using S130 (central+peripheral stack).

Alternativelly, if you don't want to use S130/S120, you can use S110 and access radio directly using timeslot API to scan for packet with S110, but it's more complicated. You can have a look at this example.

@Hung Bui : 1.so in S130 device can be connected by smartphone and it also can scan another devices in the same time? 3.i have two device i want to know their distance(use rssi) without connect and both device are peripheral
