My ED Keypad Is Not Responding

In CAN mode, check the 120 ohm resistor across CAN_H and CAN_L. The keypad requires it, and without it the device may work intermittently or not at all.

EliteDash ED Keypad Not Responding

Check in order:

  1. 120 ohm resistor fitted across CAN_H and CAN_L.
  2. Connector pinout. Pin 2 Vin, pin 3 GND, pin 4 CAN_H, pin 5 CAN_L. Confirm CAN_H and CAN_L are not swapped.
  3. Mode pin at power up. Open for Run Mode. If it is grounded, the keypad starts in Utility Mode instead.
  4. Connector torque. The M12 connector must be tight. Maximum 14 in-lbs.
  5. Utility Mode check. Ground the mode pin, power up, and check the firmware version. If Utility Mode runs and Run Mode does not, it is a firmware issue, not wiring.
  6. Bus load. Confirm the keypad is on the correct CAN bus and the bus is terminated at both ends only.
