Lantronix Application Toolbox for IoT solutions Lantronix Application Toolbox for IoT solutions (LATIS) is an architecture that uses application tools to support a easy to use "Customization by configuration" paradigm.

The xPico Wi-Fi embedded device server provides a "Mux" Line Protocol for the serial Line to manage and transfer data on multiple connections without requiring custom software on the device. A host processor that is connected to the device via the serial Line sees a simple command/response interface. There are no intentional delays required in the normal handshake. Over-The-Air Updates xPico Wi-Fi SMT device server provides a robust and secure method for the updating of device firmware over the internet. This update process uses the existing WLAN configuration and preserves the user configuration and profiles. Using the embedded web interface makes the update process simple and is user friendly. For a more scripted and automated method the same updates can be done via the WebAPI. Lantronix Query Port The xPico Wi-Fi embedded device server supports the Lantronix query Port discovery service.

SNTP Client
The xPico Wi-Fi SMT device server provides support for Simple Network Timing Protocol. This
easy to configure integrated Client allows the user to be always be synchronized to Internet time.
Time can be synchronized either by using XML on the serial port or by using WebAPI.
Lantronix Application Toolbox for IoT solutions
Lantronix Application Toolbox for IoT solutions (LATIS) is an architecture that uses application
tools to support a easy to use “Customization by configuration” paradigm. An on device
Application Server facilitates the simple interfacing of network interfaces/Web server to Host
processor/Client with a common database/cache.
LATIS enables the user to create application specific customization of the end user product
without the need to use an SDK or write software.
Custom user Data from a Web Page can be stored and used via the on device FLASH File
system. Changes to data can initiate an interrupt that notifies a connected device to fetch the
updated data.
Serial Multiplexer
As an interface serial ports tend to be used as a dedicated data channel between two points. With
data generally being asynchronous with a simple “character” format that indicates the start and
stop and sometimes error checking. With the xPico Wi-Fi embedded device server there is a
need to establish multiple data channels in order to support multiple applications simultaneously.
This requires the need to create a protocol that supports the differentiation of data.
The xPico Wi-Fi embedded device server provides a “Mux” Line Protocol for the serial Line to
manage and transfer data on multiple connections without requiring custom software on the
device. A host processor that is connected to the device via the serial Line sees a simple
command/response interface. There are no intentional delays required in the normal handshake.
Over-The-Air Updates
xPico Wi-Fi SMT device server provides a robust and secure method for the updating of device
firmware over the internet. This update process uses the existing WLAN configuration and
preserves the user configuration and profiles.
Using the embedded web interface makes the update process simple and is user friendly. For a
more scripted and automated method the same updates can be done via the WebAPI.
Lantronix Query Port
The xPico Wi-Fi embedded device server supports the Lantronix query Port discovery service.
Query Port is a Lantronix proprietary protocol which implements a simple protocol on port 0x7FFE
(30718). This service can be used by the Lantronix network tools such as Device Installer or
ComPort Redirector.
