CYCLONE & CYCLONE FX PROGRAMMERS
This guide will allow the user to program their device with a Cyclone programmer, using a simple programming
image, by completing the following steps.
This guide is intended as a supplement to the Cyclone's User Manual, which contains in-depth information
about the topics covered here and much more.
1
Installing The Cyclone Software
First, the Cyclone software should be installed on the user's PC. It can be downloaded from the Support &
Downloads tab on the pemicro.com product page for CYCLONE or CYCLONE FX, or directly from https://
www.pemicro.com/downloads/download_file.cfm?download_id=481.
Once the software is downloaded, the user should install it on their PC. If Cyclone software is already installed
on the PC, it is recommended that the old installation be removed before the user installs the latest software.
Note: The User Manual for CYCLONE or CYCLONE FX programmers, which contains more detailed information
about the topics covered here, is installed along with the Cyclone software. It can also be downloaded from
the Support & Downloads tab.

Setting Up The Cyclone Hardware
Step 1. Configure Cyclone power settings
The Cyclone has several different power configurations. The label on the bottom of the Cyclone indicates the
appropriate Jumper settings for each. The user should install the Jumpers as indicated for their desired power
configuration.
The Jumpers are located underneath the Cyclone's access panel. They are labeled "Power Jumpers." and
numbered from 1-4. The Cyclone_ACP is shown in the example below; the jumper location will be similar for all
Cyclone models.
