Method for data input into a service device and arrangement for the implementation of the method

An arrangement for input of new service data into a service device, said new service data being available at a data center located remotely from said service device, comprising:

• a service device having a memory for existing service data, a computer which forms a status report of memory location occupancy by said existing service data in said memory comprising a designation of available bytes in said memory;
• means for establishing a communication between said service device and said data center and for transmitting said status report from said service device to said data center;
• means for forming recommendations in said data center, based on said status report and the service data available at said data center, for a future memory location occupancy in said service device, each recommendation designating a different memory location to be occupied by said new service data;
• means for communicating a message from said data center to said service device containing said recommendations;
• upon receipt of said message at said service device, said computer checking said recommendations in said service device for feasibility as to memory location occupancy in said memory;
• said computer loading said new service data available at said data center into said memory of said service device at a memory location according to one of said recommendations that has been checked to be feasible;
• and
• means in said service device for triggering updating of said existing service data in said memory, using said new service data, at a time separated from loading of said new service data into said memory.
