Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus and method for loading software changes into a processor-based coin sorting machine. A flash card (59) having a memory remotely programmed with a second software code is adapted to beremovably electrically coupled to the system controller (51) of the coin sorting machine. Insertion of the flash card causes the initial code in the resident memory (58) of the machine to become erased and replaced with the second software code. The flash card may thereafter be removed from the machine and used to load software changes into other machines. Remote programming of the flash card with the second software code may be achieved by electrically coupling the flash card to a first coin sorting machine having a resident memory containing the second software code, causing the second software code to be copied from the resident memory of the first coin sorting machine to the flash card memory.
