Download Speeds for ColdFire     Ethernet......260 KBytes/sec
     USB......170 KBytes/sec      Serial.....7 KBytes/sec


The Cyclone Max can be used in 4 different modes:

  • Interactive programming packages are provided for all CPU families. 
  • Or you can link it to a PC, download multiple target programs to it and then disconnect it from the PC.  It then becomes a manually controlled, standalone  flash programmer for on chip or off chip memory.
  • Or it can be driven by a PC via the Ethernet, USB or Serial port with automated commands either using command line instructions or from a C program using the dll included in the package.
  • A PC controlling multiple cyclonesWith the addition of P&E Windows based Debugger ( works with Assembler and C ) it can be used to debug code by providing downloading to memory, access to it and the registers, as well as having the ability to set breakpoints, run the CPU at full speed, slowly or in single step mode. Support for the Cyclone Pro is being provided by a number of leading C compiler manufacturers within their C Debugging environment.

A Software Development Kit is available that allows multiple Cyclones to be driven by a single CPU for economical operation in large production environments.

Cyclone Options

Both Cyclones - the PRO (HC08,S08,HC12 and S12) and the Max (ColdFire, PPC & ARM) can be upgraded with the following options......

Additional Flash Memory
This option provides 128Mbytes of additional memory images implemented using a compact Flash card.  The CF feature allows for faster, easier, and more flexible programming of data whether it is during field updates or on production runs.

Automated Control Package
These Windows packages include a command line driven application Cyclone Launch and a set of DLLs providing a range of features of value when using the Cyclone in production situations :-
Basic Edition -----  Free Download ----  Controls  a single Cyclone from a PC via USB or Ethernet allowing one Programming Image to be held on the Cyclone which does not have to be downloaded every time so increasing performance.
Professional Edition -----  Controls  up to 3 Cyclones from a PC via USB or Ethernet, allowing up to 8 Programming Images, which do not have to be downloaded every time, to be changed on the fly and dynamic data such as serial numbers to manipulated from the PC. Supported devices can be programmed in parallel, even if they are different devices with different data.
Enterprise Edition
-----  As for the Pro version but unlimited numbers of Cyclones may be controlled from a single PC, More than 8 images can exist on the Cyclones and Licences for 5 end user PCs are included.  Also provided is a full description of the RS232 and Ethernet command Protocols so that non Windows users can implement similar functionality..
