ABSTRACT:
A method of bootstrapping executable code to a microprocessor controller from a personal computer (PC) via a bidirectional interface, e.g., a standard PC parallel port comprised of an external 25-pin D-shell connector. By bootstrapping its code from the PC, the microprocessor controller, which controls an adapter, e.g., a modem adapter, coupled to the PC is able to retrieve the most current version of code stored in the PC.
