I'm a bit of a newbie here at this. I've been playing around with a nrf51822 based board and have been able to get the iBeacon example working as well as modified the UART example to get some IoT projects going.

What I'd like to do is edit the iBeacon example so that I can connect to the Beacon and pass information for configuration/control. I've tried some funky stuff with the UART code mixed with iBeacon advertising, but that hasn't given the results I wanted. Basically advertised as an iBeacon for some amount of time, then advertised to allow UART connection - definitely not a good solution.

Can anyone point me in the right direction here?
