This restriction exists largely to prevent an operator from intentionally generating an error as part
of the programming process in an attempt to circumvent the count restrictions. A recommended
limit on this number would be on the order of 5% of the allowed programming counts.

Image Restriction Statistics
Statistics related to any specified restrictions for the currently selected programming image may
viewed by navigating in the touchscreen menu to
Current Image Operations - Show Current Image
Stats.
For more information on viewing programming image stats, see
Section 4.2.2.4 - Show
Current Image Stats
(FX Only)
.
In addition, the statistics for Number of Programs & Maximum Allowed can be set to display on the
home screen by navigating in the touchscreen menu to
Configure Cyclone Settings -> Configure

Store Image To Cyclone
“Store Image to Cyclone” allows the current configuration to be programmed into the Cyclone. The
Cyclone will then be ready for operations.
Figure 5-10: Image Management And Transfer Dialog
The Interface drop-down list allows the user to select one of three Serial, USB, or Ethernet
interfaces. The Port drop-down list allows the user to select from one of the Cyclones available on
that interface. In the case of a Cyclone present on a different network (i.e., not displayed
automatically in the Port drop-down list), the user may specify its IP address by using the Specify
IP button.
“Store Image to Cyclone” will then store the image on the selected Cyclone.
5.1.10
Store Image To Disk
“Store Image To Disk” allows the current configuration to be saved onto the hard drive. The image
can then be transferred to the Cyclone’s internal flash (and, if using the
Cyclone Universal
FX
, an
installed SD card) via the Manage Images Utility.
5.1.11
Save Cyclone Configuration
“Save Cyclone Configuration,” in the file menu, allows the user to save the configuration into a file,
which may be used for future reference, e.g., comparing the Cyclone contents with the file to see if
they are the same.
5.1.12
Load Cyclone Configuration
“Load Cyclone Configuration” in the file menu allows the user to load a configuration that has
previously been saved in order to create a new image.
5.2
Manage Multiple SAP Images
The Manage Images utility, shown in
Figure 5-11
, allows the Cyclone to store and manage
multiple images in the Cyclone’s internal memory. Once the programming images have been
created and saved to the disk using the Create Image utility, they may then be loaded collectively
