-launchimage=[image name or number]
Launch a specific image on the open Cyclones. The image can be identified by name or image
number.
-putdynamicdata=[cyclone number],[address],[data]
ONLY SUPPORTED BY CYCLONE FX OR THE CYCLONE CONTROL SUITE ADVANCED LICENSE.
Performs programming of dynamic data with the selected Cyclone unit. [cyclone number] is the index of the
connected Cyclone in the order in which it was entered. [address] is the starting memory address. [data] are
the bytes of data to be programmed. All values should be in hexadecimal format. No more than 255 bytes
may be programmed this way.
A Cyclone unit may only use this command after it has performed its “-launchimage” command.
If the target is reset after programming the image, “-putdynamicdata” will fail. The workaround to this is to
execute a second blank image that will re-load the algorithm before using this command.
-putdynamicstring=[cyclone number],[address],[string]
Performs programming of dynamic data with the selected Cyclone unit. [cyclone number] is the
index of the connected Cyclone in the order in which it was entered. [address] is the starting
memory address. [string] is the data in string format. No more than 255 bytes may be programmed
this way.
A Cyclone unit may only use this command after it has performed its “-launchimage” command.
If the target is reset after programming the image, “-putdynamicstring” will fail. The workaround to
this is to execute a second blank image that will re-load the algorithm before using this command.
-showproperties=[category],[image id if applicable]
List all available properties in a [category] in the open Cyclones or a stored SAP image by using
the [image id if applicable] argument. Refer to the header file for a list of valid category and
property names. Using an empty string as the [category] value will return the available categories.
-addimageinternal=[filename]
Add a specific programming image to the internal memory of the open Cyclones. [filename] is the
path and filename of the image to be programmed into the Cyclones.
-addimageexternal=[filename]
ONLY SUPPORTED WITH CYCLONE FX OR THE CYCLONE MEMORY EXPANSION LICENSE.
Add a specific programming image to the external memory of the open Cyclones. [filename] is the
path and filename of the image to be programmed into the Cyclones.
-eraseallinternalimages
Preform a format of the internal memory connected to the open Cyclones. This will cause all
internal images to be erased.
-eraseallexternalimages
Preform a format of the external memory connected to the open Cyclones. This will cause all
external images to be erased.
-eraseimage=[image name or number]
Erase an individual image from the open Cyclones. The image can be identified by image name or
