1356/1356P CAN Interface Expansion Module

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Curtis Model 1356/1356P CANbus I/O expansion module is designed to enhance control systems by providing additional digital and analog I/O capabilities. It supports up to 5 fingertip joysticks and is compatible with any CANopen-based control system. The module is available in two forms: a conformally coated PCB (model 1356) and an epoxy-filled enclosure (model 1356P).
Applications
This module is typically used in various vehicles and equipment, including material handling trucks, aerial lift platforms, airport ground support equipment, compact construction equipment, and floor care machines.
Features
  • 18 multi-purpose I/O pins for flexible vehicle control system expansion.
  • Two high-frequency PWM driver outputs for various system loads.
  • Five analog inputs for voltage or resistance measurement.
  • Quadrature encoder input for rotation and directional sensing.
  • 12V unregulated and +5V regulated power supplies for low current control loads.
  • Serial port option for direct access by Curtis programming tools and displays.
  • Configurable CANbus connection for communication with other devices.
  • Short circuit protection on all output drivers.
  • Programmable dither amount and frequency for precise valve positioning.
  • Constant current or voltage output modes for accurate control.
  • Built-in coil fly-back diodes to reduce voltage spikes.
  • Compact design with specific dimensions and connector types.
  • IP65 rating for the epoxy enclosed model 1356P.
  • Support for 12–36V or 36–80V nominal supply voltages.
Specifications
The module meets various US and International regulations, including EMC and safety standards. It is designed to comply with EN12895, EN1175-1:1998+A1:2010, and EN (ISO) 13849-1. UL583 recognition is pending.
Model Chart
The document provides a model chart detailing the specifications of different models, including the number of I/O pins, voltage range, digital inputs, PWM outputs, analog inputs, encoder inputs, serial port availability, and external power supply options.
System Accessories
Additional Curtis models are mentioned for advanced control of AC induction motors and electric power steering systems, as well as a handheld programmer for setting parameters and diagnostics.
Functional Safety Data

1356/1356P CAN Interface Expansion Module-1

CANBUS I/O EXPANSION MODULE MODELS 1356 / 1356P DESCRIPTION The Curtis Model 1356/1356P CANbus I/O expansion module provides accurate control of up to 5 fingertip joysticks, or can be used to add additional digital and analog I/O to any CANopen1 based control system. It is available as a conformally coated PCB (model 1356) or in an epoxy filled enclosure (1356P). APPLICATION Expands I/O capabilities on any CANopen1 vehicle control system. Typically used on materials handling trucks, aerial lift platforms, airport ground support equipment, compact construction equipment and sweeper-scrubber floor care machines. FEATURES • Eighteen multi-purpose I/O pins provide simple, flexible vehicle control system expansion. • Two high-frequency (1A, 3A) PWM driver outputs support a variety of vehicle system loads (i. e. horn, buzzer, relays). • Five analog inputs which can be enabled for voltage or resistance measurement, supporting a variety of sensor and voltage inputs. • Quadrature encoder input provides rotation and directional sensing. • 12V unregulated and +5V regulated power supplies (200mA total) support low current control loads (electronic throttles) as well as sensing based loads (resistive senders, encoders). • Serial port option allows direct access by Curtis 1313 / 1314 programming tools, Curtis Model 840 Display or status LED configuration. • Configurable CANbus connection provides communication with other CANbus enabled devices. • Multi-purpose I/O pins in a compact, low cost, PCB based module. • Short circuit protection on all output drivers limits potential for load, device circuit damage. • Analog inputs can also be used as virtual digital inputs with programmable On/Off thresholds and variable filters. • Built-in programmable dither amount & frequency allow precise hydraulic proportional valve positioning. • All outputs can also be used as 'active high' digital inputs. • Constant current or constant voltage output modes provide accurate control. • Built-in coil fly-back diodes reduce voltage spikes when driving inductive loads/coils. • Compact PCB design 100 X 70 mm overall size or epoxy filled enclosure, 24 pin & 4 pin Molex connectors. • PCB version must be mounted within a protective enclosure. PCB is conformally coated for protection from moisture and dust. • Epoxy enclosed model 1356P mechanically sealed to IP65. IP65 rating does not apply to Molex connectors. • Optional status LEDs provides immediate, visual status of vital system functions. • Support of 12-36V or 36-80V nominal supply voltages. • 12-36V models are suitable for use on internal combustion engine applications.
