Abstract

Described is a system and method for configuring a computing device. The method comprises detecting a coupling of a computing device to a host device, receiving first configuration data from the computing device, displaying the first configuration data on a graphical user interface on a display of the host device, generating second configuration data as a function of at least one change to the first configuration data entered via the graphical user interface and inputting the second configuration data to the computing device so that the computing device replaces the first configuration data with the second configuration data.
