The machine is serviced by a method comprising providing a hand held unit which can communicate through the internet with a database providing software for the PSoC of the SPCB circuit board, providing on the SPCB an interface for local communication with the hand held unit and causing the hand held unit to communicate with the database of machines, stored on the internet, to download software onto the PSoC of the machine.</p> |
