As a LanBox-LCE is Ethernet only I assume you are using TCP/IP or UDP 
to control the box?

You can fully control and get back layer and mixer values via TCP/IP 
(or MIDI, SysEx). Have a look in the developer folder in the LCedit+ 
folder, you will find several MAX examples.

The LanBox commands are all described in the "LC+ Reference 
v2.0a1.pdf" file (in the manuals folder), but for TCP/IP or MIDI you 
mostly need "channelSetData". For UDP usage see also the LanBox 
tutorial and the MAX UDP examples.

I hope this helps,
