Deleting the image will not delete the associated serial number as other images stored on the
Cyclone may be using that same serial number. The serial number is tracked on the Cyclone by
the
imageuniqueid
JSON property. If any image is added back onto the Cyclone with that same
Serial Unique ID, it will continue to track with that same serial number at the latest count. So if a
user has a new version of their firmware, they can create a new SAP image that uses the same
serial number as the previous firmware (referenced by same serial unique ID) and the
programming will continue the serial number sequence from the current serial number state since
that serial file is stored on the Cyclone.
Once a SAP image is loaded with a serial file, and it is selected as the current image on the
Cyclone, it is possible to adjust the serial count. This is done by navigating through the following
screens on the Cyclone.

Serial Number
If the image has more than one serial number incorporated into the SAP image, select the Serial
number which is to be modified. Otherwise just select ‘Modify Serial’.
