1. A method for configuring an interface unit of a computer system, the method comprising: providing the computer system with a first processor and a first data link between the first processor and the interface unit and a second processor is or is made to be stored in the interface unit; providing the interface unit with at least two data channels, wherein a first input data channel is designed as a data channel for storing input data and a first output data channel is designed as a data channel for storing output data; configuring a peripheral environment of the computer system such that the peripheral environment comprises at least two peripheral devices and the peripheral environment is configured to store input data in the first input data channel or to read output data from the first output data channel via a second data link; configuring the interface unit to provide a data link for reading the input data stored in the first input data channel by the second processor and to provide a data link for storing output data in the first output data channel by the second processor; storing a computer program in the computer system; programming the first processor to execute the computer program and during the execution of the computer program, assigning a value, which is defined by the input data stored in the first input data channel to a variable of the computer program; creating a sequence of processor commands and loading the sequence in the second processor; starting, after the loading of the sequence in the second processor, the execution of the computer program by the first processor and the execution of the sequence by the second processor; writing, during the execution of the sequence, a value defined by the data stored in the first input data channel, at a first memory address; and creating a plurality of subsequences of processor commands, wherein a first subsequence represents a routine for reading in and processing at least the data stored in the first input data channel, wherein a second subsequence represents a routine for reading in and processing at least the data stored in a second input data channel or represents a routine for processing data generated by the first processor and for storing the processed data in the first output data channel, and wherein the sequence is created by merging the subsequences.
