1 The leased Platinum Upgrade is free for the first year after purchase creating the Platinum version of REC-TEC.  REC-TEC Platinum automatically becomes REC-TEC PRO if the Platinum Upgrade is allowed to expire.  If the Platinum Upgrade is renewed, the program again becomes REC-TEC Platinum.  The Platinum Upgrade now permits Unlimited Installations (Computers and USB drives) on Single/Dual Installation Licenses as long as it remains active.

*  EDM/EDR (click to view additional data) has 250 phases or events and works with Engine Control Modules or Vetronix(R) Crash Data Retrieval tools (EDR).  It will then transfer the information to the expanded Time Distance Multiple Events section for additional computations and time or distance breakdowns that can include space delimited output files for video animation.
