Software-configurable digital controller HT-DCC Deluxe

for test benchesprogrammable

Overview
General-purpose transmission dyno control system for Axi-line and Mustang transmission dynamometers. Replaces outdated controls with a cart-mounted all-in-one solution. Uses the HTC-S controller with modern processor architecture to enable continuous firmware updates and system expandability. Runs Hydra-Test Dyno Control Software derived from the company's valve-body platform with ongoing enhancements driven by industry feedback.
