1. An automatic loading apparatus for a processor system which is operably connected to a first power supply and includes an auto-boot; wherein the auto-boot automatically loads a random access memory defining a portion of a memory space of the processor system with an application program from a non-volatile memory upon a power up condition, and wherein the application program executes at least one set of instructions periodically when running correctly, said automatic loading appartus comprising: means, having a memory location mapped in the memory space of the processor system, for generating an operational signal by accessing said memory location when said at least one set of instructions is executed wherein said means for generating said operational signal is coupled to a bus of said processor system and includes means for determining when the memory address assigned to said means for generating said operational signal is accessed by the processor system; a second power supply; a programmable controller, connected to said second power supply and connected to said processor system by said bus, for detecting said operational signal and for generating a plurality of control signals; and means for switching off and for switching on the first power supply in response to said plurality on control signals, said programmable controller generating one of said control signals to said means for switching thereby turning the first power supply on in response to detecting said operational signal within the time period of correct execution of the at least one set of instructions, and said programmable controller generating another one of said control signals to said means for switching thereby turning the first power supply off and then on again in response to not detecting the operational signal within the time period of correct execution of the at least one set of instructions, the operation of turning off the first power supply and the turning it on again creating the power up condition for said processor system and a consequent loading and reinitialization of the random access memory with the application program by the auto-boot.
