Abstract

The invention concerns a radiocommunication module, of the type hosting and executing a main software providing in particular radiocommunication functions and comprising means for executing drive controls, sent to it by at least a driver client software. The invention is characterised in that the radiocommunication module further hosts and executes at least a client software comprising a main client application and at least a secondary (slave) client application. The processing operations carried out by the onboard client software are distributed between the main and secondary client applications. The onboard client application acts: as a driver client software, sending drive controls to the main software, and receiving from it responses, resulting from the execution of some of the drive controls; and/or as a supervising client software, managing the execution of the drive controls sent by an (external) driver client software hosted and executed by a third party equipment co-operating with the radiocommunication module.
