What is Leica Cyclone Cloud?

Leica Cyclone cloud manages logins for the Field 360 accounts. Leica Cyclone Field 360 is a tablet based companion app to the Leica Cyclone Register360/BLK Edition desktop software. Leica Field 360 allows users to control their Leica BLK360 and Leica RTC360 scanners, capture and register point clouds, and capture site notes in the field. Field360 is included as part of the Leica Cyclone Register360/BLK Edition software. No additional entitlement is required to install Leica Field360, however users do need to register their EID in Leica Cyclone Cloud.

Each Cyclone Cloud login can be associated to one Cyclone REGISTER or REGISTER 360 license EID that allows up to 5 devices to sign into Field 360. Leica Cyclone Cloud lets you mange Field 360 app users. Each time a user logs in via an app on a device a 1 month license is generated for them to use the app. This does not reflect the expiration date of your actual desktop software license.  

The Leica Cyclone Cloud website can be thought of as the license server from which you borrow a license to run Field 360.

Managing your Leica Cyclone Cloud account

The details shown inside the Leica Cyclone Cloud account are simple (see below). If you are getting an error on the Leica Field 360 app saying too many account logins then you can use the cloud account to check how many devices are logged in, under borrowed licenses. Here you can see I have two devices using my EID.
