A medical appliance having an auxiliary computer system in addition to its action computer system, and further having two communications buses. The auxiliary computer system independently monitors the functional mode of the action computer system and can induce a reliable state of the appliance in an emergency. To easily, quickly and reliably implement a programming, the execution of test sequences, the diagnosis and the maintenance of such an appliance, a connection line, which can be interrupted by a switch, is arrange between the communication buses, and both communications buses can be connected to form a unified communications bus via the communication line. A method for executing such a programming process, testing process, diagnostic process and/or maintenance process of a medical appliance is also provided.
