User Manual For CYCLONE Programmers

Prompts for a starting address, which must be in the module. You are then asked to enter, in
hexadecimal, a word to be programmed into the current location. Clicking the OK button will
automatically advance to the next data word location.
Program Module
This command will program the selected S-record file into EEPROM/flash. For this command to
work, you must have previously selected an S-record file.
Verify Module
This command will verify that the selected S-record file was programmed into the EEPROM/flash.
For this command to work, you must have previously selected an S-record file.
Verify Checksum
This command verifies the module content via a CRC calculation. This command is typically much
faster than performing a full Verify Module command.
Choose Serial File
This command becomes available once a programming algorithm is selected. It specifies the serial
file that holds the serial numbers to be programmed to the target. Please reference
12.1 - SAP_LAUNCH Introduction
for more information about programming serial numbers.
Program Serial Number
This command becomes available once a programming algorithm is selected. It will instruct the
Cyclone to program the serial number to the target once executed. As with other commands, the
serial number will not be programmed until the SAP operations are carried out. Please reference
CHAPTER 12.1 - SAP_LAUNCH Introduction
for more information about programming serial
numbers.
6.1.4
Communication Mode and Rate Settings
CYCLONE
programmers support multiple communication modes and communication rates. A
user needs to select proper communication mode and rate from the drop down list after
programming operations are specified. The debug connector pin definitions are listed for
reference.
6.1.5
Target Voltage and Power Settings
A user may elect to use Cyclone to supply power to the target. In this case, the Target Voltage
specifies the target MCU I/O voltage level.
The user needs to take into account the power discharge time for the Power Down delay. The
reset driver delays, power stabilization time, and the target clock stabilization time should be
considered for the Power Up delay.
A checkbox is available for a user to instruct the Cyclone to turn off target power after SAP
operations. If unchecked, the target power will remain on.
The user has the option to provide Reset Delay if certain reset monitoring devices are used. The
Cyclone will delay for the specified time after allowing the target out of reset.
6.1.6
Image Description
The Cyclone Image Creation Utility allows the user to summarize the purpose of current
configuration for future reference. The description will be either programmed into the Cyclone or
saved into an encrypted file.
The image description will appear on the touchscreen LCD for image identification. This field will
not affect the Cyclone’s operations with the target.
6.1.7
FX Special Features
P&E offers a high-end version of our
CYCLONE
programmers called
Cyclone
FX
. The Cyclone
Image Creation Utility contains an area called “FX Special Features” which is used only to
configure some of the unique feature enhancements offered on the
Cyclone
FX
. Note that this
area will always appear active, but it should not be used when creating a programming image for a
