When the IntraCore 8000 is powered on, it loads its software via one of two methods: locally (via its internal flash memory, which is the default setting) or remotely over the network.
IImportant: The default Load Mode setting for the IntraCore 8000 is Local.
Image Banks
The IntraCore 8000 has two banks to store its runtime software. The banks are referred to as bank 1 and bank 2.
Either of these banks may be the Boot Bank, which is the bank from which the runtime code will be loaded the next time the IntraCore 8000 is booted.
When downloading new runtime image codes, you may specify either of the two banks as the Destination Bank in which the new code will be loaded.
