FIELD: information technology, entertainment.
SUBSTANCE: proposed gaming equipment is connected with multiple "sets of the gaming USB-periphery" including one or more peripheral units that exchange information with the main gaming controller and use USB-connection interface. These sets of gaming USB-periphery may include DFU-compatible peripheral USB units (DFU - update of unit's program components). One ore more USB class-manager type of host processes or DFU drivers can be realised with possibility of loading firmware in the DFU-compatible peripheral USB device. Host processes can realise accepting of the firmware identifier from the DFU-compatible peripheral USB device. Moreover, the firmware identifier allows loading of different firmware for DFU-compatible peripheral USB units having identical product information.
EFFECT: this invention allows simplifying the software development and testing process in gaming equipment.
