摘要

A system and method for controlling a transmission system (52) is provided. One agricultural vehicle (10) includes a vehicle controller (52) configured to instruct an engine controller (46) to maintain an engine (54) at a constant speed and to receive a first signal from a transmission controller (44) indicative of gear shift initiation. The vehicle controller (42) is also configured to instruct the engine controller (46) to maintain the engine (54) at a current torque upon receipt of the first signal and to receive a second signal from the transmission controller (44) indicative of gear shift completion. The vehicle controller (42) is configured to instruct the engine controller (46) to maintain the engine (54) at the constant speed upon receipt of the second signal.
