Abstract

The invention in particular has as an object the control of execution of software commands of a data-processing system in an aircraft cockpit comprising means for allowing a user to call up these commands. For these purposes, the means making it possible to call up these commands initially are locked in order to block calls to software commands. At the time of reception of an information item for unlocking these means, they are unlocked and the software commands may be called up. The software commands may be called up via the call-up means only if these means are in an unlocked state.
