Abstract:
An electrically-powered circuit for repeatedly transmitting a sequence of programming commands according to a predetermined programming protocol, said circuit comprising:a counter containing and outputting a state between zero and a maximum state, which counter periodically either increments the state contained therein when the contained state is less than the maximum state, or sets the contained state to zero if the contained state is equal to the maximum state; an addressable register containing a frequency channel sequence with address input electrically connected to the counter state output; is a data table circuit with input electrically connected to the addressable register output, and which table's output consists of programming commands corresponding to the table input; a programming interface circuit with first input electrically connected to the data table output, which interface circuit formats and transmits data received by the first input according to the predetermined programming protocol.
