Allison Offline Authentication USB Dongle
Setup Guide
The purpose of the Allison Offline Authentication USB Dongle is to allow
Allison DOC® and TCM Reflash to authenticate with the 6th Gen TCM when an
active internet connection is not available (offline) or has a low grade/poor
quality connection. The Allison Offline Authentication USB Dongle is not
required when online and logged into Allison DOC® with an Allison HUB user ID
or Allison TCM Reflash user ID.
Note: Allison OEM VCP users should refer to the VCP User Guide for
information. The VCP User Guide is located on Allison HUB under the
Engineering > VEPS Tools menu.
While the Allison Offline Authentication USB Dongle is intended for offline
use, an active internet connection and an Allison HUB account or TCM Reflash
account are required to activate and provision the dongle for the first time.
To request an Allison HUB account visit

NOTE: Due to the small size of the USB, it is recommended to attach the USB dongle to a lanyard.
