Claim Text:
1. A method for utilizing a mobile computing device to configure a target system, comprising the steps of: continually monitoring by a target system for one or both of the presence of an audio cable connection between an audio jack of a mobile computing device and an audio jack of the target system, and the presence of a connection tone on an acoustic coupling through air between a microphone and speaker pair of the mobile system and a microphone and speaker pair of the target system; responsive to detecting one or both of the presence of the cable or the connection tone, automatically establishing a modulation/demodulation communication session between the mobile computing device and the target system via a signal greater than 0 hertz and less than about 28 kilohertz; using the communication session, the mobile computing device by the target system validating each other; responsive to successful validation, the target system entering a configuration mode; automatically preparing one or more configuration parameter values for the target system by the mobile system; automatically sending the configuration parameter values to the target system; and automatically implementing the configuration parameter values in the target system using the communication session.
