    Wi-Fi connection. The majority of the provisioning functionality is performed by the BLE Cortus of ATWINC3400, with the host application performing some helper functions via dedicated libraries. This application triggers a Wi-Fi scan and lists the scanned APs on the receiver. On receiving the Wi-Fi configuration data (which is passed to the host application where it is fed into the BLE Cortus provisioning API), it validates the data and starts the connection process.
