Accept Mode
In Accept mode, the xPico Wi-Fi listens (waits) for incoming connections from the network. A
remote node on the network initiates the connection.
The configurable local port is the port the remote device connects to for this connection. There is
no remote port or address. The default local port is 10001.
Serial data can still be received while waiting for a network connection, keeping in mind serial data
buffer limitations.
