TCM Reflash (PCCS)
TCM Reflash consists of mainframe host systems (PCCSWeb) and 5th Generation Calibration
Delivery System (CDS) and a PC subsystem or client (PC Load Station). The host system stores
calibrations that were assembled using data supplied by Allison Transmission’s product
engineering department, based upon user requirements and specific selection criteria. The PC
subsystem client allows the user to download calibrations from the host, systematically store the
calibrations and relevant information, and then load the calibrations into a TCM or ECU. TCM
Reflash also performs a series of tests and validation steps to make sure the user downloads and
loads the correct calibration into the correct TCM/ECU. TCM Reflash also keeps track of all
calibrations downloaded and applied to a TCM/ECU.
Typical users of TCM Reflash are Allison distributors and dealers, vehicle OEMs, DOEMs, and
Allison personnel.
