The Mobile ATF/DM I used for my swap is Allison approved conventional ATF. Otherwise its TRANSEND for full synthetic (tes295)... so, what Suprman said :)
I don't want to misquote the relearn procedure. It's in the same -20 as the filter change, 2320-365-20-3. If I remember right it is mentioned in several procedures dealing with changing out the trans shift controller. Master power on wait for trans control light to show current gear, rinse...
220 Mile run after ATF switch over and Trip Report
Trip report...

Followed "8-9 Transmission Oil Filter Replacement" procedure found in TM 9-2320-365-20-3 page 8-32. However, I deviated from the procedure and did NOT remove the front driveshaft (WARNING...
