Abstract
A method of defining the operation of switching system peripherals is comprised of storing a software program for operating the peripherals in a switching system; storing at least one table of data for access by the program for defining operating parameters of a corresponding at least one peripheral; modelling a prototype of the peripheral in a remote host system by creating a human-machine-interface simulating the peripheral; storing a control table of data corresponding to the modelled prototype in a memory for the host system; and downloading the control table into the one table, whereby operation of the peripheral is controlled by the operating software programs and the data in the at least one table.
