An aircraft control or interface unit with a programmable controller includes an isolated, non-volatile command memory containing the complete, fixed set of non-compiled, text-format commands used for every application programmed into an instance of the aircraft control or interface unit. A command interpreter automatically and sequentially interprets and executes the command set in a continuous loop, where the command set encompasses all commands necessary for the ability to activate, implement and disable all available input, output and processing capabilities within the hardware configuration of the aircraft control or interface unit. A command parser that process and stores the entire command set into executable commands for automatic and sequential execution in a continuous loop, where the command set encompasses all commands necessary for the ability to activate, implement and disable all available input, output and processing capabilities within the hardware configuration of the aircraft control or interface unit.
