ABSTRACT:
A method for writing software into a programmable memory within a peripheral apparatus initiated by a host computer is provided. The host computer issues a software write command and the peripheral apparatus includes a microcontroller connected to the host computer via an interface. A data line and an address line are provided to connect the microcontroller and the programmable memory. The method comprises the following steps: (1) providing a supervisory program within the programmable memory or the microcontroller, the supervisory program including a software write instruction; (2) the microcontroller executing the software write instruction and down-loading the software from the host computer via the interface; and (3) via the data and address line, performing the write operation of the control software to the programmable memory.
