Can my Bluefruit board detect other Bluefruit boards or Central devices?
No. All of our Bluefruit LE modules currently operate in peripheral mode, which means they can only advertise their
own existence via the advertising payload. The central device (usually your phone or laptop) is responsible for
listening for these advertising packets, starting the connection process, and inititating any transactions between the
devices. There is no way for a Bluefruit module to detect other Bluefruit modules or central devices in range, they
can only send their own advertising data out and wait for a connection request to come in.
