• Cypress USB Console (Recovery Boot (TE USB FX2 Firmware Recovery) uses CyAPI.lib)
• Cypress USB Control Center (Recovery Boot (TE USB FX2 Firmware Recovery) uses CyUSB.dll)
• OpenFutNet (Recovery ProcedureBoot uses CyUSB.dll)

work also if the reference firmware, or a derived firmware, is not running in the module. The reference/derived firmware is not necessary because they do not make use of TE API Commands. Conversely, they directly make use of CyAPI.lib and CyUSB.dll, respectively. These two tools are therefore only able to update the firmware of the USB FX2 microcontroller, but not the FPGA configuration file (bitstream).
