For a newbie, is there an easy method to put the "the OEM data to program into your FTDI interface EEPROM" per the earlier posting with all the FTDI data listed? I am aware of the FTDI program called "FT_Prog" and can see the pre-existing EEPROM data set. |

I ordered a brand new OEM Curtis interface before returning the programming stations that I had leased for years. I tried to go the official route and place my order with a source here in the US, but all they were willing to sell me was a Dealer level interface. After being an authoized Factory level OEM for so long, that was not OK with me. So I ordered it from a source in China. It took over a month to arrive, and by the time it did, my contract and NDA had ended. When I had time to spend on it, I hooked it up and read out the data. I wrote it down so I could post it for others to use. Other than figuring out how the program determines and stores access level, I've not spent a lot of the time required to make hacking these interfaces easier for others. I had hoped that others here would take the information and move forward with it. FWIW, retiring is not all it's cracked up to be. You work harder for no pay, but the end result is more satisfying. It's worth it in the long run Bob |

Re: Programming Curtis Controller
Look on a PC powersupply, or adapter cord between powersupply and mainboard these also use these 4-pin molex connectors.
Google for something like this. Pentium 4 Power supply cable PC 12 volt 4 pin molex |

Re: Programming Curtis Controller
Well, Thank you very much.
It's a whole lot easier to find, now that I know what it is I'm lookin for. The controller is hard to access, so I wanted a pigtail to hang off of it. The extension cable is perfect. Thanks,Muddog |

Re: Programming Curtis Controller
Did anyone also try using an FTDI chip with changed vid/pid?
Installing the software and chosing the 1309 cable it seems to make no difference if the 1309 cable is connected or not. It will show oem anyway. When I have a chip with only vid and pid programmed the software instantly changes from oem to user when I try to read. I don't think the settings are stored in registry or anywhere else but are checked every time there is serial activity like reading or writing data from or to your controller. Simply building a cable with an FTDI chip and change vid and pid using ftprog or mprog does not seem to do the trick. Changing registry or configuration files do not help. I tried this with het 4.6.7 Version of the PC programming station. |

Did you make sure that the FTDI chip that you used is genuine FTDI? The chinese have semi-successfully copied the FTDI chip function-wise and sell them, some with the same markings as the genuine chips. They do not function identically and the newer FTDI driver can detect the differences. I have not seen your issue where once the registry is set that it fails when reading or writing with the FTDI cables that I made. Mine works perfectly every time. I wish I were able to help you more with this. I did get my crashed computer back up and running, but not all files were recovered. I've been so busy with national security issues lately that I've not had time to spend on hacking the interface. I just made it home from Washington DC a couple of nights ago. Bob |
