Abstract
The invention concerns a radiocommunication module, of the type hosting and executing a main software providing in particular radiocommunication functions. The main software comprises means for executing drive controls, sent to the main software and belonging to a predetermined set of drive controls. The invention is characterised in that the radiocommunication module further hosts and executes at least a client software, called onboard client software. The onboard client software and the main software comprise means enabling the onboard client software acts at least as one of the following: a driver client software, sending drive controls to the main software, and receiving from the main software responses, resulting from the execution of some of the drive controls; a supervising client software, managing the execution if the drive controls sent by a driver client software, called external client software, hosted and executed by a third party equipment co-operating with the radiocommunication module.
