  • Altitude performance – drivability, low speed, accel, derate strategy/reporting for the transmission
  • Launch (idle governor) tuning for rear axle ratio range and transmission variants with PTC and transmission supplier jointly
  • Extended idle performance (desorb and soot)
  • PTO gain tuning for customer applications
  • Torque limiting with brake application and powertrain component limits (max torque per gear, axle shaft, etc.)
  • System integration including CAN communication and subsystem diagnostic communication
