APPENDIX B
PROGRAMMING DEVICES
Curtis programmers provide programming, diagnostic, and test capabilities
for the 1204M/05M/09M/21M controllers. The power for operating the pro-
grammer is supplied by the host controller via a 4-pin connector. When the
programmer powers up, it gathers information from the controller.
Two types of programming devices are available: the PC Programming
Station and the handheld programmer. The Programming Station has the
advantage of a large, easily read screen; on the other hand, the handheld pro-
grammer has the advantage of being more portable and hence convenient for
making adjustments in the field.
Both programmers are available in User, Service, Dealer, and OEM ver-
sions. Each programmer can perform the actions available at its own level and
the levels below that—a User-access programmer can operate at only the User
level, whereas an OEM programmer has full access.
PC PROGRAMMING STATION (1314)
The Programming Station is an MS-Windows 32-bit application that runs on
a standard Windows PC. Instructions for using the Programming Station are
included with the software.
HANDHELD PROGRAMMER (1311, 1313)
The 1313 handheld programmer is functionally equivalent to the PC Program-
ming Station. The 1311 is an earlier model with fewer functions. Instructions
are provided in the 1311 and 1313 manuals.
