Powertrain Communication
The ability for the transmission and engine to share information and offer complimentary functions gives the Detroit transmission an advantage no other supplier can offer.
• Dedicated powertrain communication does not use J1939
Common Powertrain Controller
Motor Control Module
Transmission Control Module
Based on input from the vehicle operator, and detailed knowledge of the vehicle, the electronic controls can command:
• Engine torque limiting to reduce driveline damage and shift more smoothly • Transmission shift points to keep RPMs in the sweet spot

Daimler Trucks North America
When coasting down grades or reducing speed, the eCoast function of the DT12 transmission temporarily opens the driveline
• Disengaging the powertrain saves fuel
• Vehicle momentum is preserved
• Appropriate gear is always selected upon acceleration
eCoast
eCoast Conditions
• Minimum vehicle speed threshold is exceeded
• Vehicle acceleration and engine speed limit is not exceeded
• No accelerator pedal, brake pedal, or engine brake input
• Upcoming eCoast event exceeds a minimum estimated time requirement
• No active regeneration
• Weight does not exceed 100,000 lbs.

Skip Shifting The DT12 can skip unnecessary gears under low loads or running bobtail
• Reduced gear steps keep engine in sweet spot, increasing efficiency
• Ability to run through lower gears faster to achieve cruising speed sooner
• Less shifting creates smoother driving and increased acceleration
• Ability to choose appropriate start gear based on load and grade inputs

Daimler Trucks North America
The purpose of Intelligent Powertrain Management (IPM) is to use the momentum of the vehicle most efficiently by eliminating unnecessary fueling, engine braking and shifting while minimizing the impact on travel time. • IPM is feature of cruise control that uses terrain maps and GPS to know the route
ahead up to 1+ miles (2 KM)
• IPM uses shifts, acceleration, engine braking and coast versus eCoast optimization to efficiently operate the powertrain.

Detroit Transmission Fluid The DT12 uses a fully synthetic oil to further increase:
Fuel Efficiency
• Lower viscosity oils that are synthetically engineered for their application reduce friction and pumping inefficiencies, using less fuel to turn the transmission
Reliability
• Synthetic oils are engineered to clean contaminates and dissipate heat more effectively, leading to longer transmission life
ONLY use MB 235.11 spec oil in the DT12
Different spec oils will:
• Not provide the same fuel efficiency
• Affect reliability by deteriorating gaskets and seals
• Break down further before the maintenance interval

• Active Driveline Protection: Transmission Control Module calculates the torque wind-up in the driveline and regulates with engine torque control for enhanced driving comfort and less driveline wear
• Driving Mode (Econ vs. Perf): depending on application customer can choose between eco and power-mode configuration
• Kick-Down: allows for improved vehicle acceleration
• Pneumatic clutch and shift actuation: allows faster gear shifts compared to electronic actuation
• Helical gears and geometrical optimized gear-cut for noise reduction and efficiency
• Creep mode allows enhanced slow speed maneuvering through speed-adapted clutch control

DT12 Clutch
The DT12 uses a ceramic-metallic faced clutch, in both single or dual plate configurations. With a Concentric Pneumatic Clutch Actuator (CPCA), precise computer control allows for long-lasting operation and superior shifting and traction control.
• Clutch warranty is 3 years or 300,000 miles
• Detroit recommends replacing the clutch at 750,000 miles

Shift Boost Mode
The DT12 shifts noticeably smoother than other automated transmissions. In addition to pneumatic shift and clutch actuators, the engine and transmission work together to ensure the smoothest shifts possible. The engine will:
• Brake 3 cylinders and fire 3 cylinders, to maintain turbo boost and fuel pressure
• Speeds up time-to-target during up-shifts under load – FASTER SHIFTING
• Preserves boost energy allowing quicker torque ramp-up – QUICKER TORQUE BUILD-UP
• Pre-loading of driveline allows smoother shifts under full load – SMOOTH ENGAGEMENT

Creep Mode
Although the clutch slips to transfer limited torque, the TCM constantly monitors load and temperature.
The DT12 will not allow the clutch to be damaged by Creep Mode, and will abort if damage is imminent.
The Creep Mode of the transmission simulates a torque converter in an automatic transmission to improve low speed maneuverability for parking, docking, heavy traffic, or other low speed situations.

Safety
• True two-pedal system for ease of operation and reduced driver fatigue
• Hill Start Aid (HSA): prevents roll back after
standing still on a hill
• Auto Neutral: transmission electronics command "Neutral" gear when certain conditions apply, e.g. parking brake is engaged or vehicle shut-down
• Shift lever with gear, auto/manual mode and engine brake selection improves ergonomics
• Reduces New Driver Training
Daimler Trucks North America
Hill Start Aid (HSA)
When transitioning from a standstill to acceleration on a grade of 3% or more, Hill Start Aid acts as a brake assist feature to prevent rollback for up to 3 seconds.
The ABS module holds and modulates brake pressure after the driver has released their foot from the brake pedal.
Creep-Mode works in combination with Hill Start Aid to achieve proper:
• Acceleration / Torque
• Brake modulation transition to clutch control
• and slowly moving the vehicle forward.
HSA is enabled (hold brake pressure) with the following conditions:
• Brake pressure exists
• Vehicle is not moving
• No ABS system faults are active
• HSA switch is not disabled
Smooth and Safe Transition from Brake to Throttle

Auto Neutral
The TCM will automatically shift the transmission into neutral in certain conditions:
• While the shifter is in drive or reverse position
• If the transmission was mistakenly left in gear
• When the ignition switch is turned off
When the operator has applied the parking brake while the stalk is in drive or reverse, the dash will flash “N” for neutral after 5 seconds and a quick “beep” will be sounded.
After an additional 5 seconds without driver interaction, an additional “beep” will be sounded and the DT12 will shift into neutral.

Cruise Descent Descent control will help control your vehicle and engine speed when descending a grade
Note: Descent control does not use the CC band switch and does not fuel the engine on the descent
1. Determine appropriate descent speed 2. Turn on engine brakes (actively working) 3. Set cruise speed
4. Apply service brakes if necessary 5. Afterwards, turn off engine
brakes 6. Descent speed becomes the new cruise speed
