Newer versions of Planeplotter provide a direct TCP interface to the Xport, so data is not just streamed over the network but instead transmitted without loss and only if a device is connected.
Tunnel is configured to the port 10001

You can also interface the TCP to the [http://www.lantronix.com/device-networking/utilities-tools/com-port-redirector.html Lantronix Com Port Redirector], which installs a COM port for the application side.
Pin configurations for hardware handshake require configuration

* '''Factory reset without serial:'''<br>Telnet to port 9999. Then you get a simple console menue, much like the BIOS setup of your PC. Simply do a factory reset, save and exit, and after a moment you will have it back on factory defaults.
* '''Firmware upgrade of the Lantronix Xport:'''<br>There is a [http://ltxfaq.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1597 FAQ of Lantronix], but ensure that the hardware revision of the Lantronix matches to that.
