In a multi-device FPP configuration chain (with a MAX II device or microprocessor +
flash), all Arria II GX devices in the chain must either enable or disable the
decompression feature. You cannot selectively enable the compression feature for
each device in the chain because of the DATA and DCLK relationship.

This section describes the functionality and implementation of the dedicated remote
system upgrade circuitry. It also defines several concepts related to remote system
upgrades, including factory configuration, application configuration, remote update
mode, and user watchdog timer. Additionally, this section provides design guidelines
for implementing remote system upgrades with the supported configuration
schemes.
System designers sometimes face challenges such as shortened design cycles,
evolving standards, and system deployments in remote locations. Arria II GX devices
help overcome these challenges with their inherent reprogrammability and dedicated
circuitry to perform remote system upgrades. Remote system upgrades help deliver
feature enhancements and bug fixes without costly recalls, reduce time-to-market,
extend product life, and help to avoid system downtime.
Arria II GX devices feature dedicated remote system upgrade circuitry. Soft logic
(either the Nios
device can download a new configuration image from a remote location, store it in
configuration memory, and direct the dedicated remote system upgrade circuitry to
start a reconfiguration cycle. The dedicated circuitry performs error detection during
and after the configuration process, recovers from any error condition by reverting
back to a safe configuration image, and provides error status information.
