The Curtis Integrated Toolkit (CIT) is a comprehensive Windows-based software suite that helps OEMs design, configure, program, commission, and diagnose Curtis CAN-based control systems. By providing a complete system view of connected CAN devices, CIT simplifies vehicle development, accelerates commissioning, and reduces troubleshooting time throughout the product lifecycle.

Designed for engineers developing electric vehicles and mobile equipment, CIT enables users to communicate with multiple CAN devices simultaneously or target individual controllers as needed. The integrated software environment provides access to controller parameters, diagnostics, system monitoring, software management, and Vehicle Control Language (VCL) development, allowing engineers to optimize vehicle performance while reducing development complexity.

The Programmer application allows users to configure controller parameters, monitor live operating data, diagnose faults, and create customized dashboards for real-time visualization of system performance. The integrated TACT (Test, Analysis and Calibration Tool) captures time-based data from multiple CAN devices simultaneously, enabling engineers to analyze vehicle behavior, troubleshoot complex issues, and validate system performance during development and testing.

CIT also simplifies software deployment and lifecycle management. Pack & Flash creates software packages and downloads them to connected controllers, while Flash Download provides a streamlined solution for programming controllers during production. VCL Studio offers a complete development environment for creating, editing, compiling, and debugging Curtis Vehicle Control Language applications, while the Menu Editor enables OEMs to customize programming menus and define user access levels for production, service, dealer, and engineering personnel.

Available in multiple editions to support production technicians, service organizations, dealers, and OEM development teams, the Curtis Integrated Toolkit provides a scalable software platform that grows with customer requirements. Automatic software updates, compatibility with industry-standard USB-to-CAN interfaces, and support for Curtis CAN controllers, system controllers, and I/O modules make CIT an essential development and service tool for modern electric vehicle control systems.
