APPENDIX B: PROGRAMMING DEVICES
APPENDIX B
PROGRAMMING DEVICES
Curtis programmers provide programming, diagnostic, and test capabilities for
the 1356 /1356P. The power for operating the programmer is supplied by the
host 1356 /1356P via a 4-pin connector. When the programmer powers up, it
gathers information from the 1356 /1356P.
Two types of programming devices are available: the 1314 PC Program-
ming Station and the 1313 handheld programmer. The Programming Station
has the advantage of a large, easily read screen; on the other hand, the handheld
programmer 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 (1313)
The 1313 handheld programmer is functionally equivalent to the PC Pro-
gramming Station; operating instructions are provided in the 1313 manual.
This programmer replaces the 1311, an earlier model with fewer functions.
