Curtis 1313 Handheld and Passkeys

[kaimukiguy]

Aloha from Hawaii,
I just bought a dealer handset from FSIP (I service carts) but can't seem to find the menu for speed parameters in the parameter menu. Do I need to buy passkeys or doesn't the handheld allow me to do that without further files like thought?

Your going to need a Passkey first. The Passkey will get you around 17.5mph and then with a handset you can bump the 17.5 up to 19.5mph. You should have gotten a OEM level Curtis handheld not a Dealer level. And FSIP will not sale you a OEM level.

I got my OEM Level Programmer(1313-4331) from here.

Im not sure what a passkey is but i am able to set the controllers to 4 different modes, once you do that you can go in and adjust the max speed/rpms.

That's just it, the PTV 19.5 mph mode is "mode 5". And programming ezgos with the handset is quite different than a clubcar. None of the curtis handsets can "enable freedom mode 5" if it's currently disabled. That's where "passkey" comes into play. Passkey is the ezgo equivalent of the clubcars "3 speed codes".

Gotcha!

Im sure it was just a typo but on Club Cars 1-3 can be changed via a OEM Programmer. I think when you said "Passkey is the ezgo equivalent of the clubcars "3 speed codes"." you meant to say 4 Speed code because that the one that requires the A B C codes to activate.

Yes, A, B, C codes. That's exactly what I was talking about. Except on ezgo, you plug in Passkey to diag port, turn key on, wait for 2 beeps, turn key off, remove passkey (which only works 20 times, then its dead), handheld programmer now has access to set & adjust "Freedom" PTV mode 5.

Still attempting to find a method to reset a passkey (not sure how it counts the 20 activations) but have been unsuccessful so far. When I do find a method I'll be sure to pass it on.

I just bought a 1313 Curtis Controller Programmer Handheld to adjust the settings on my 2021 Evolution. I’m curious if you have any insight after having yours for awhile what settings to adjust for speed, acceleration, braking, etc.
