1 — OVERVIEW
e Curtis Electronic Code Switch (ECS) is an operator identication keypad. e ECS ensures
that only authorized users can operate a vehicle. e ECS supervisor denes the authorized users.
Authorized users can log on by entering a user ID and PIN code or by swiping an RFID tag.
e ECS can be integrated into vehicle systems with or without a CANbus. e ECS is designed for
use in applications such as material handling vehicles, MEWP (Mobile Elevating Work Platforms),
golf carts, ICE vehicles, and many others.
e following list summarizes the ECS’s key features:
• A Normally Open (NO) relay that is opened and closed by CAN messages or by users logging
on and o.
• Machine power control through authorized RFID tag and PIN code access or CAN commands.
• Easy to integrate with vehicle systems:
– CAN-based systems: CANopen implementation with an optionally connected CAN
termination resistor. Supports CAN baud rates from 100 Kbps to 1 Mbps.
– Non-CAN systems: e output relay changes state when an authorized user logs onto
the ECS.
• Pass-through mode, which is for applications in which another CAN device can receive
keypad entries and RFID tag swipes.
• Supports ISO 14443A RFID tags.
• Allows up to 100 users.
• Status LEDs and a buzzer conrm keypad entries and provide diagnostic information.
• Automatic log o based on the interlock state and a congurable timer.
• You can use the Curtis Integrated ToolkitTM (CIT) or the Curtis 1313 handheld programmer
to change parameters, monitor real-time data, review and clear the fault history, update
rmware, and perform other diagnostic and application development tasks.
• Operates in demanding conditions, with an operational temperature range of –40° to +70°C
and electronic components sealed to IP65.
• CE compliance, UL recognition, and ROHS 3 compliance ensure compatibility with global
regulatory safety.
Note: For technical support, contact the Curtis distributor or the Curtis sales and support oce in

When the ECS commands the relay to close or open, the Relay State parameter indicates the
relay’s state:
• When the relay closes, the Relay State value changes in this order: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
• When the relay opens, the Relay State value changes in this order: 5, 6, 8, 0.
e Relay Work Mode parameter species whether logging on or CAN commands engage the relay.
ere also are parameters for conguring the relay’s pull-in and holding voltages; see Relay Menu.
INTERLOCK
When the interlock state is o and the logo interval has expired, the ECS automatically logs the
user o. e logo interval is specied with the Logo Time parameter.
Note: e automatic logo can be disabled by setting Logo Time to 0.
e interlock signal can be controlled with either a switch, such as a seat switch, or RPDO1. e
Interlock Type parameter species the interlock signal’s source.
If the vehicle uses an interlock switch, connect the switch to pin 2. When a switch is used, the
interlock’s input voltage ranges from 0V to the B+ voltage. e interlock input is active high; the
interlock state is o when the interlock input’s voltage is below the voltage specied with the Interlock
High reshold parameter.
Note: For information on the interlock parameters, see Control Menu.
CANbus
To connect the ECS to the CANbus, connect CAN Low and CAN High to pins 5 and 6, respectively.
Use twisted-pair wiring to minimize the likelihood of picking up a voltage bias on only one signal.
Pin 1 provides access to an internal 120Ω terminating resistor. To enable the resistor, connect CAN
High (pin 6) to pin 1.
e ECS includes parameters for items such as the baud rate, heartbeat rate, node ID, and PDOs. For
more information, see CAN Interface Menu and CANopen Communications.
CALIBRATE THE ANTENNA
Aer the ECS is installed, calibrate the antenna so that the ECS automatically detects the best channel
for RFID recognition. You can calibrate with either of the following:
• e AM Base Calibration parameter.
• e keypad; see the Calibrate the Antenna section.

5 — THE ECS SUPERVISOR AND USERS
e ECS supervisor is responsible for authorizing users to log on to the ECS. e supervisor authorizes
users by creating PIN codes and/or tags for user IDs. Aer the supervisor creates a user, the user can
log onto the ECS by swiping the tag or entering the user ID and PIN code.
e supervisor can delete users. When a user is deleted, the user’s PIN code and/or RFID tag are
deactivated and the user can no longer log on to the ECS.
e ECS provides 100 user IDs. e supervisor’s user ID is 00. e remaining user IDs, which range
from 01 through 99, are for users.
The default supervisor PIN code is 123456. For security reasons, change the supervisor’s PIN code
CAUTION
as soon as possible.
e following considerations apply to supervising users:
• e default PIN code for users is 1234. Aer the supervisor creates a PIN code for a user ID,
the user should specify a dierent PIN code.
• Aer the supervisor creates a tag for a user ID, the user can create a PIN code.
• Aer the supervisor creates a PIN code for a user ID, the user can create a tag.
• e supervisor can remove a user’s tag while preserving the user’s PIN code, and vice versa.
• e supervisor logs on with the ECS keypad.
• e supervisor manages users with the keypad or with a Curtis programming device, as
described in the following topics:
– Supervisor Operation with the Keypad
– Manage Users with Curtis Programming Devices
Note: e supervisor can also use the keypad to update some parameters and calibrate the
antenna eld strength level.
USER STATUSES
Each user ID has a user status. e user status indicates whether and how the user can access the
ECS. User statuses are identied by numbers and are described in the following table:
Table 4 User Statuses
User Status Description
1 The user is not authorized to access the ECS.
2 The user only has a PIN code.
3 The user only has a tag.
4 The user has both a PIN code and a user tag.

The programmable parameters allow you to configure the ECS so that it meets your application’s
requirements. Curtis programming devices provide a user-friendly way to read and write to
the parameters.
Note: You can change some parameters with the keypad; see Program Parameters with the Keypad.
Restart the ECS after you change a parameter marked as [PCF]. If the ECS is not restarted, a
Parameter Change fault will occur.
e parameters are grouped into menus and are described in the following topics. e following
columns in the parameter description tables contain multiple types of information:
• Parameter and CAN Index: e parameter name, followed by the CAN index and sub-index.
is column also identies parameters marked as [PCF].
Note: CAN indexes and sub-indexes are delimited by colons. For example, a parameter with
an index of 0x4E46 and a sub-index of 0x00 would be represented as 0x4E46:00.
• Val ue s and Raw Values: e allowed values as displayed in Curtis programming devices,
followed by allowed values in raw units suitable for CAN messages.
• Data Size and Read/Write. e parameter’s data size, followed by whether the parameter is
writable (RW) or read-only (RO).
• Access Level and Default Value. e parameter’s access level for Curtis programming devices,
followed by the default value.
Note: Curtis programming device licenses provide dierent access levels to parameters.

PASS THROUGH MODE MENU
e Pass rough Mode menu is visible if the ECS is operating in pass-through mode. Pass-through
mode is designed for applications in which another CAN device can receive keypad entries and RFID
tag swipes. Pass-through mode has the following characteristics:
• Users cannot log on.
• e ECS remains in the idle state.
• e Input PushButton Value parameter stores the keys that were entered before the button
was pressed. e parameter is reset to 0 if the Clear PushButton Value parameter is set to On
or an RFID tag is swiped.
• e RFID parameters store the UIDs of swiped tags. ese parameters are reset to 0 if the user
presses numeric keys and then presses the button.
To enable pass-through mode, set the Pass rough Switch parameter to 1.

FAULT CODES
When the ECS detects a fault, it operates in a manner that is safe in the presence of that fault.
Depending on a fault’s severity, a fault’s eect can range from no action to shutting down operation.
Some faults have multiple causes. e ECS uses fault types to distinguish these causes. All faults have
a fault type of 1; faults with multiple causes have additional fault types.

e ECS complies with the CAN in Automation (CiA) CANopen DS 301 specication. is chapter
describes the ECS's CANopen features.
Some familiarity with CANopen is a prerequisite. For CANopen information, see the following pages
on the CiA web site:
• https://www.can-cia.org/canopen/
• https://www.can-cia.org/groups/specications/
BYTE AND BIT SEQUENCE ORDER
CANopen message byte sequences are transmitted with the least significant byte first (littleendian format).
Note: is manual uses the LSB 0 Numbering convention when referring to byte and bit numbers.
For example, the following table shows an SDO that sets the object with index and subindex 334C01h
to the value 04E2h.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Control Byte Index Sub-index Data
2Bh 4Ch 33h 01h E2h 04h 00h 00h
Strings are read from le to right, with the least signicant bit transmitted rst. For example, the
following table shows an SDO that writes the string “save”:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Control Byte Index Sub-index Data
23h 10h 10h 01h 73h = “s” 61h = “a” 76h = “v” 65h = “e”
Bit sequences are transmitted from most signicant to least signicant bit (big-endian format). e
following example shows the bits for the value 2Bh:
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1
CAN PROGRAMMING CONSIDERATIONS
To program the ECS, use a Curtis programming device. e following considerations apply when
programming the ECS:
• When a Curtis programming device is connected, the programmer uses 127 as the Node ID.
• When you change parameter values with a Curtis programming device, you do not need to
use the CANopen Store Parameters object (1010h). Instead, the programming device saves
parameter changes to NVM.

MESSAGE CAN-IDs
e ECS’s CAN messages are identied by 11-bit CAN IDs. e ECS does not use 29-bit CAN IDs.
NMT STATE CONFIGURATION
e Auto Operation parameter indicates whether the controller automatically enters the operational
or pre-operational state aer initialization.
NMT, emergency, SDO, and heartbeat messages are available in both states. PDO messages are
available only in the operational state.
EMERGENCY MESSAGES AND FAULTS
e ECS transmits an emergency message when a fault is generated or cleared. An emergency
message is sent once per fault, and is not present while the fault remains active.
e emergency message COB-ID is the sum of 80h plus the device’s node ID. Emergency messages
consist of 8 bytes, which are described in the following table:
Byte(s) Name Description
0–1 Error Code Indicates the fault code and the error category:
Byte 0 indicates the fault code, which is in the following format:
• The four most signicant bits contain the fault code’s rst digit.
• The four least signicant bits contain the fault code’s second digit.
For example, if the fault code is 3,2, the byte's value would be 32h.
Note: Fault codes are listed in Table 8.
Byte 1 indicates one of the following error categories:
• 00h = All faults are cleared
• FFh = Fault dened by the ECS
2 Error Register Indicates whether any faults are active on the transmitting device:
• 00h = No active faults
• 01h = At least one active fault
Note: The value equals the least signicant bit in the Error Register object.
3–4 Fault Index Indicates the CAN index of the Fault Record.
pg. 38
5 Fault Type Indicates the fault type.
6–7 N/A Reserved.
e following emergency message indicates that a fault with fault code 33 has occurred. e fault’s
CAN index is 2813h and the fault type is 2.

PDOs
e ECS provides two precongured RPDOs and two precongured TPDOs; for details, see PDO1
and PDO2. You can map other CAN objects to the precongured PDOs. e ECS also provides
PDO3 and PDO4, which by default are not precongured.
e following topics describe the PDOs.
PDO Timing
e ECS’s PDOs are asynchronous and are periodically transmitted and received. e ECS does not
support synchronous PDOs.
A PDO's Event Time parameter indicates when the PDO transmits or is required to receive data:
• A TPDO transmits periodically using the specied time interval.
• A PDO Timeout fault occurs if an RPDO does not receive data before the Event Time expires.
Note: A TPDO also transmits data when the value of a mapped object changes.
PDO Mapping Objects
e objects for which a PDO transfers data are specied with the sub-indexes of the PDO’s mapping
object. Each sub-index species a CAN object’s index, sub-index, and data length. ese sub-indexes
correspond to the parameters on the PDO Mapping menus.
e following table describes the mapping objects’ sub-indexes:
Sub-Index Description PDO Mapping Menu Parameter
00h Indicates the number of objects that the
PDO maps.
01h–08h Each sub-index species a mapped CAN
object. The bytes specify the CAN object's
index, sub-index, and length.
e mapped objects consist of four bytes, which are described in the following table:
Table 9 Mapped PDO Bytes
Byte(s) Description
0–1 The object’s index.
2 The object’s sub-index.
3 The size of the object's data, in bits. The allowed values are:
• 08h (8 bits)
• 10h (16 bits)
• 18h (24 bits)
• 20h (32 bits)

PDO Data Bytes
A PDO transfers a maximum of eight data bytes. e order of the bytes corresponds to the order of
the PDO’s mapped objects.
For example, consider the following PDO map:
Suppose the PDO transmits the following data:
00 08 65 00 00 00 00 00
Bytes 1–2 contain the data for the rst mapped object (33000010h), byte 3 contains the second
mapped object’s data, and so on.
Map CAN Objects to a PDO
Take the following steps to map objects for a PDO. You can perform these steps with either SDOs
or a Curtis programming device.
Note: e screen shots are from CIT.
1. Send an NMT message that changes the device to the Pre-operational state.
2. Disable the PDO by changing the COB-ID's most signicant bit to 1.
3. Change the Length parameter to 0.
e following example shows the disabled PDO:

Curtis Electronic Code Switch Module (ECS) – March 2021 Return to TOC
4. For each object to be mapped, specify the object’s data in a Map n parameter. The data is
described in Table 9.
5. Set the Length parameter to the number of mapped objects.
6. Enable the PDO by changing its COB-ID's most signicant bit to 0.
e following example shows the enabled PDO, which now contains three mapped objects:
7. Send an NMT message that changes the device to the Operational state.
PDO1
RPDO1 and TPDO1 are precongured to communicate with a device, such as a traction controller,
that commands the ECS’s relay state and interlock state. RPDO1 receives the data transmitted by the

PROGRAMMING DEVICES
Curtis programming devices provide programming, diagnostic, and test capabilities for Curtis CAN
devices. Two programming devices are available for the ECS:
• 1313 handheld programmer
• Curtis Integrated ToolkitTM (CIT)
CIT has the advantage of a large, easy-to-read screen. On the other hand, the 1313 handheld
programmer is more portable, making it convenient for working in the eld.
e programming devices include the following features:
• Parameter adjustment. Save and restore the values of programmable parameters.
• Monitoring: Display real-time values during vehicle operation. ese values include data for
inputs and outputs.
• Diagnostics and troubleshooting: Display active faults and the fault history, and clear the
fault history.
• Flashing: Update rmware of Curtis devices.
e programmers are available for the following access levels. e bullets are sorted from the highest
to lowest access level:
• OEM Factory
• OEM Dealer
• Field Advanced
• Field Intermediate
• Field Basic
A Curtis programmer can perform the actions available at or below its access level. For example, a
Field Basic programmer can only perform actions available for the Field Basic access level, while an
OEM Factory programmer can perform all actions available for any of these access levels.
e following example shows the Control menu in the CIT Programmer application. You can view
or edit a parameter by selecting it on the le-hand side. You can also view and edit all of a menu’s
parameters in one window by selecting the menu as shown below:
