March, 2006 - New Product Release DVC5 Auto Range PWM Output
High Country Tek released a new upgraded version of the DVC5. The proportional outputs in the DVC5 will now automatically adjust (Auto-Range) to drive valve(s) up to 3.0 Amps. Previous designs of the DVC5 required specification of the maximum coil current prior to ordering.
Additional functionality in the DVC5:
February, 2006 - New Product Release
Digital Proportional Valve Driver Cards
High Country Tek released two new open loop proportional single and daul coil Apitech/Parker VPL compatible valve driver products; the HDU a single coil proportional valve driver and the HDD, a dual coil proportional valve driver.
Both provide precise control of a single coil proportional valves and enable the user to add ramping of the valve, regulation up to 3.5 Amps

SAE Commercial Vehicle Engineering Congress & Exhibition, October 26 - 28th, 2004
High Country Tek participated in the 2004 SAE Commercial Vehicle Engineering Congress & Exhibition in Chicago this past October. The show was a great success. We had the opportunity to demonstrate new products as well as build new business relationships.
October, 2004 - DVC5, Programmable Valve Controller
High Country Tek announces the release of the DVC5 programmable valve controller. The DVC5 Programmable Valve Controller is the latest addition to the DVC family of modules. The low cost DVC5 has enough processing power and input output functionality when operating as a single control module to support a wide range of hydraulic applications. Should more capability be needed than provided by the DVC5, then the DVC10 and the DVC expansion modules can be used. Any DVC5 programs can be transferred to the DVC10 Programming Tool. As with all of the DVC modules, the DVC5 is packaged in a small rugged enclosure. All connectors are sealed and the module is encapsulated to withstand extreme conditions in the harsh mobile operating environment.
The DVC5 comes in two versions. One with and one without a direct J1939 CAN Bus connector while both versions support an RS232 connected DVC61 text display device. August, 2004 - Technical Release Bulletin – DVC Product Family & BIOS Maintenance Release 4.0
High Country Tek has released a new revision of the DVC System Programming Tool, the Program Loader Monitor and BIOS files for the DVC module family. This release, Rev 4.0, is intended to ensure all functionality of the DVC System is at the highest possible level consistent with HCT quality standards.
High Country Tek has also released an upgraded DVC10. The hardware change will improve the speed of the memory in the DVC10. This will improve the DVC10 performance as well as the overall DVC system performance when combined with the 4.0 software. The upgraded DVC10 product will be identified with the revision letter “B”. For simple identification purposes, all DVC10 hardware shipped at Rev B will include a separate revision block on the DVC10 label and include the designation “Rev B”.
All DVC10’s and DVC expansion modules produced after 2 August will be shipped with DVC Software Rev 4.0. You may mix revision levels of DVC products in a single system, however, when you install a DVC10 Rev B in your system, HCT recommends that you upgrade all your DVC10’s and expansion modules BIOS’s to Rev 4.0. All DVC products currently in the field will work with DVC10 Rev B. HCT strongly recommends that all applications developed with previous versions of the DVC System Software and Programming Tool be recompiled and downloaded using the Rev 4.0 DVC Software.
High Country Tek is continuing to enhance and upgrade our products to meet customer and industry demand. We are working hard to remain your mobile hydraulics control partner. We will keep you informed as we release many more new products over the coming months.
Please contact HCT for further information and to receive the DVC Product Family & BIOS Maintenance Release 4.0.
July, 2004 - DVC50, Universal Output Expansion Module
The DVC50 Universal I/O Module is a slave expansion module that is designed to operate in conjunction with a DVC10 Master Module. Its large number of inputs and outputs make it ideal for the applications that may need additional proportional outputs with local or remote closed loop capabilities. A +5Vdc reference voltage is provided to supply power to external sensors. Four analog (0 to 5Vdc) and two analog/pulse (0 to 5Vdc) inputs can interface to a number of different types of sensors including joysticks, potentiometers and pulse sensors. Eight digital inputs are provided for a multiple of switch type inputs. The outputs are the same as the DVC10 Master Module including 6 high-side (sourcing, on/off) and 3 PWM outputs. The DVC50 communicates to the DVC10 through the CAN Bus and utilizes the RS-232 port for setting the MAC ID (node) and for device monitoring. The controller is packaged in a small rugged enclosure and encapsulated to withstand extreme harsh environments.
