SECTION 1: MOUNTING THE MINI MAXX
In this section you will decide where to mount the Mini Maxx Cradle, so you are essentially choosing the location for the Mini Maxx inside the vehicle cab. First, decide which mounting style you will choose for the Mini
Maxx; we oer two dierent styles of mounting:
1. Windshield mounting
2. Custom Pod mounting (Refer to the instructions included with your custom pod)
Visit www.hsperformance.com for custom options
INSTALLATION CONTINUED
WINDSHIELD MOUNTING

SECTION 2: OBD II ADAPTER PLUG
This step involves locating the vehicle’s OBD ll port and
then simply plugging the OBD ll Adapter Plug into the
OBD ll port.
1. As the illustration below shows, OBD ll ports
are always located somewhere under the drivers side dash. The OBD ll port is a male receiver
that will have the same shape as the end of the
OBD ll Adaptor plug.
2. Once the OBD ll port is located, then simply
plug the OBD ll Adaptor plug into the OBD ll
port.
OBD II ADAPTER PLUG DIAGRAM
1. OBD ll Male end: this is the part of the adapter plug that plugs into the vehicle OBD ll port.
2. Main harness port:
the main harness will plug into the Mini Maxx and into this port during installation.
3. Power wire port: the power wire will run from this port to the vehicle fuse box during installation.
Plug into the Mini Maxx and into this port during installation.
4. Power supply switch: use this switch to change power from battery power to keyed power for a
powered supply for the Mini Maxx.
5. Four pin usb: This port is used if an H&S pyrometer kit is purchased for the Mini Maxx.
6. Five pin usb
7. Adapter plug fuse
Possible OBDII Port Locations
(location may vary)
Note: On some vehicles it is recommended to move the OBD II port to a safer location. Because the Mini Maxx will
remain plugged in, the adapter can be kicked/bumped and broken. Please move your OBD II connection to a safer
location if you feel it is in a position that may allow it to get damaged.

SECTION 3: INSTALLING THE POWER WIRE *OPTIONAL
*The OBD II port provides constant 12V+ power, so your Mini Maxx can power o of the OBD II port alone.
But in this situation the Mini Maxx will not turn on and o with the ignition. There is a switch on the OBD II
adapter plug in order to turn the Mini Maxx on and o.
In this section you will run the Power Wire coming from the Mini Maxx Cradle to the vehicle fuse box and
connect it to the fuse locations specied below. The fuse location for the Power Wire is dierent on each
vehicle application.
CONNECTING THE POWER WIRE:
1. Route wire to location shown in pictures found in the Vehicle Specic Sections starting on page 27
2. Remove the fuse, indicated in the pictures, and insert the fuse jack. Make sure that the fuse jack is placed
on the dead side of the fuse to ensure that the Mini Maxx is protected by the fuse. Use a volt meter to verify
the dead side of the fuse. With the fuse pulled and the truck powered on but not started, the volt meter
should read 0 volts on the fuse jack to ground. Problems that can occur if the incorrect fuse is used for
this connection: the power may stay on continuously even with the key o; or, the Mini Maxx can receive
power at the incorrect time of the power-on/starting cycle of the vehicle.
3. Run the power wire through the re wall before preparing the Power Wire. Prepare the Power Wire by
stripping the end of the wire about ¼”. Connect the blue 90° connector to the end of the Power Wire using
crimping pliers.
4. Connect the Power Wire to the fuse jack, place the fuse back into the slot, and close the fuse box.

SECTION 4: RUN MINI MAXX HDMI CABLE
In this section you will connect the Mini Maxx HDMI cable to the OBD ll Adaptor plug and then run the other
end of the HDMI cable up the side of the vehicle dash and connect it to the back of the Mini Maxx.
1. Plug one end of the HDMI cable into the Main Harness port on the OBD ll adapter plug.
2. Run the other end of the HDMI cable up through the vehicle dash on the drivers side so that the end of
the cable emerges from the dash near the vehicle A-pillar. It may be necessary to temporarily remove
the vehicle weather stripping and dash panel to achieve an installation where the HDMI cable cannot
be seen.
3. Plug the HDMI cable into the back side of the Mini Maxx, make sure that there is enough slack in the
cable to accommodate mounting the Mini Maxx to the windshield.

Speed Limiter
This option allows for the adjustment of the factory speed limiter. Most 5.9L Cummins trucks have a
106 MPH speed limiter from the factory. The limiter can be adjusted from 50 MPH to 200 MPH. This
option can only be adjusted during the Install Download process.
Rev Limiter
This option allows for the adjustment of the factory rev limiter. Most 5.9L Cummins trucks have a
3500 RPM rev limiter from the factory. The limiter can be adjusted from 3000 RPM to 5000 RPM. This
option can only be adjusted during the Install Download process.
Torque Management (Automatic Transmission Only)
This option allows for the disabling of the vehicles torque management for those equipped with
automatic transmissions. This is recommend for those running standalone aftermarket TCM/transmission packages but will also slightly improve throttle response on a stock truck.
NOTE: By turning the torque management OFF, the PRNDL display will be lost as well as the reverse lights.
Tire Size Calibration
This option allows for the re-calibration of the factory speedometer to adjust for non-stock sized
tires. For the most accurate speedometer reading when using non-stock sized tires, it is best to
measure the diameter of the tire using a tape measure rather than going by the printed tire size. In
addition, using a GPS is a great way to dial in your factory speedometer. Entering a larger tire size
will cause the factory speedometer to read higher while entering a smaller tire size will cause the
factory speedometer to read lower. The tire size can be adjusted from 24” to 42”. This option only
takes a few seconds to change and can be adjusted at any time from the Tire Size Calibration menu.
Keyed Ignition Source Location
Although it is possible to manually power up the Mini Maxx without using a keyed ignition source,
it can sometimes create communication issues between the Mini Maxx and the vehicles ECM. To
eliminate these problems, we highly recommend tapping into a 12V keyed ignition source to supply
power to the Mini Maxx only when the key is in the ON position and the vehicles ECM is online.
Below you will nd a commonly used 12V keyed ignition source for your vehicle:
2006-2007 5.9L - FUSE NUMBER 30
Always tap into the cold side of the fuse. On the
2006 - 2007 5.9L Cummins, the cold side is towards
the drivers side of the vehicle.
NOTE: If your fuse box or wiring looks dierent than those pictured
or if you are not getting 12V ignition power from the pictured source,
you may need to nd another 12V keyed ignition source using a test
light or multimeter. If possible, nd one that stays hot during engine cranking.

Overdrive Transmission Software
Did you know that your H&S tuning device also has the capability of tuning your transmission? If
your 5.9L Cummins is equipped with the 48RFE automatic transmission, you may want to check
out our Overdrive Transmission Software. Custom tailored to mate with H&S engine tuning,
the 5.9L Overdrive software includes modied torque converter lock/unlock strategies that will
command the TC to lock in 3rd gear under wide open throttle and hold it locked through 4th gear.
Light throttle torque converter strategies have also been changed to lock-up sooner, keeping more
power directed to the road instead of wasted in heat and friction. Shift points are modied to
take advantage of the available horsepower and torque output. On a 2006 Cummins with a stock
48RFE, we have seen 0.2 to 0.3 second quicker 1/4 mile times JUST from the addition of the H&S
Overdrive tuning! An additional unlock fee may apply, see www.hsperformance.com for details.

TPMS Adjustability / Disable
Many 2008 - 2010 6.4L Powerstrokes are equipped with a TPMS or Tire Pressure Monitoring
System from the factory. This system is designed to alert the driver of a problem with the
vehicles tire pressures but is often a nagging inconvenience for those individuals wanting to run lower pressures or get rid of the TPMS sensors altogether. H&S Performance
has a designed solution for those individuals. By using your H&S tuning device and a 6.4L
Powerstroke TPMS Adapter (Part #709913), you will have full control of the TPMS. Front and
rear tire pressures will be independently adjustable from 0 - 100 PSI as well as the option to
Disable the TPMS completely if removing the TPMS sensors from the vehicle. All changes to
the TPMS must be done with the 6.4L Powerstroke TPMS Adapter in place and the Adapter
must be removed after changes are made to resume normal tuner function.
Transmission Relearn
The 5R110 automatic transmission on the 2008 - 2010 6.4L Powerstroke has what is called
Adaptive Memory and is constantly learning and adapting to dierent horsepower levels,
temperatures, driving habits, etc. After completing the Install Download process on the 6.4L
Powerstroke, the Transmission Adaptive Memory is automatically reset. We highly recommend performing a Transmission Relearn procedure after installing H&S tuning to help the
transmission perform correctly with the added horsepower. The 5R110 automatic transmission will eventually learn over time on its own, but the relearn procedure gives a good
baseline for the adaptive learning and helps to speed up the learning process. To perform
the relearn procedure, please follow these instructions:
When re-training the transmission, ALWAYS follow posted speed limits. Do NOT attempt runs in adverse weather conditions such as snow, ice, rain, wind, or any other
conditions that may aect your vehicles traction or impair your visibility!
1. After H&S tuning is installed, perform each of the following 0-80 MPH runs while in the
Performance power level. During this relearn process, you may experience hesitation
during shifts, hard shifts, or defuel patterns, all of which are normal:

NOTE: On any vehicle using 3” or larger lift blocks under the rear leaf pack, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to install
traction bars. With any added horsepower, failure to do so may result in harsh shifting and may cause premature
transmission and/or driveline damage.
Keyed Ignition Source Location
Although it is possible to manually power up the Mini Maxx without using a keyed ignition
source, it can sometimes create communication issues between the Mini Maxx and the
vehicles ECM. To eliminate these problems, we highly recommend tapping into a 12V keyed
ignition source to supply power to the Mini Maxx only when the key is in the ON position
and the vehicles ECM is online. Below you will nd a commonly used 12V keyed ignition
source for your vehicle:
SOLID PURPLE WIRE
The SOLID PURPLE wire (capped from the factory)
is found under the drivers side dash. This SOLID
PURPLE wire is bundled with multiple other capped
wires near the OBD-II port.
NOTE: If your fuse box or wiring looks dierent than those pictured
or if you are not getting 12V ignition power from the pictured
source, you may need to nd another 12V keyed ignition source using a test light or multimeter. If possible, nd one
that stays “hot” during engine cranking.
Maxx Calibration Control
Maxx Calibration Control (MCC) is an advanced engine management software tool that enables
custom tune editing with your H&S tuning device. With the power to control all aspects of engine
and transmission management, MCC gives YOU the ability to control how YOUR engine operates!
When you have exceeded the limits of conventional tuning and want to unleash the power of a
custom tune, look no further than MAXX CALIBRATION CONTROL
NOTE: Applications may vary by vehicle make and model, please check our website to see if MCC is available for your

Power Levels can be adjusted on-the-y at the touch of a
button after Installing the Download to the vehicle. The unit
cannot be unplugged otherwise the Power Level will default
to Stock.
NOTE: The Power Level ratings listed may not be exact for your particular
vehicle. The listed ratings apply to the out-of-the-box tuning that H&S tuning
devices are shipped with. Any custom downloads may result in dierent rat-
ings and can be found at www.hsperformance.com/update-instructions.
Tire Size Calibration
This option allows for the re-calibration of the factory speedometer to adjust for non-stock
sized tires. For the most accurate speedometer reading when using non-stock sized tires, it
is best to measure the diameter of the tire using a tape measure rather than going by the
printed tire size. In additon, using a GPS is a great way to dial in your factory speedometer.
Entering a larger tire size will cause the factory speedometer to read higher while entering a smaller tire size will cause the factory speedometer to read lower. The tire size can be
adjusted from 31” to 34” (this may change so be sure to visit www.hsperformance.com for product updates).
This option only takes a few seconds to change and can be adjusted at any time from the
Tire Size Calibration menu.
TPMS Adjustability / Disable
Many 2011 - 2013 6.7L Powerstrokes are equipped with a TPMS or Tire Pressure Monitoring
System from the factory. This system is designed to alert the driver of a problem with the
vehicles tire pressures but is often a nagging inconvenience for those individuals wanting to
run lower pressures or get rid of the TPMS sensors altogether.
With your H&S tuning device, you have full control of the TPMS. Front and rear tire pressures
are independently adjustable from 0-120 PSI as well as the option to disable the TPMS completely if removing the TPMS sensors from the vehicle. This option only takes a few seconds
to change and can be adjusted at any time from the Tire Pressure Calibration menu.
NOTE: TPMS adjustments will not take full eect on a stationary vehicle. Once adjustments have been made, it can
take up to 5 miles of driving before changes take eect.

full and part throttle shift rmness, and modied torque management tables. All changes
are designed to keep more power directed to the road instead of wasted in heat and friction.
On our test trucks, we have seen 0.2 to 0.3 second quicker 1/4 mile times JUST from the addition of H&S transmission tuning! An additional unlock fee may apply, see
www.hsperformance.com for details.
Transmission Relearn
The 6R140 automatic transmission on the 2011 - 2013 6.7L Powerstroke has what is called
Adaptive Memory and is constantly learning and adapting to dierent horsepower levels,
temperatures, driving habits, etc. If you selected to tune the transmission during the Install
Download process, the Transmission Adaptive Memory is automatically reset when the download completes. We highly recommend performing a Transmission Relearn procedure after
installing H&S transmission tuning to help the transmission perform correctly with the added
horsepower. The 6R140 automatic transmission will eventually learn over time on its own, but
the relearn procedure gives a good baseline for the adaptive learning and helps to speed up
the learning process. To perform the relearn procedure, please follow these instructions:
When re-training the transmission, ALWAYS follow posted speed limits. Do NOT attempt runs in adverse weather conditions such as snow, ice, rain, wind, or any other
conditions that may aect your vehicles traction or impair your visibility!
1. After H&S tuning is installed, perform each of the following 0-80 MPH runs while in the
Performance power level. During this relearn process, you may experience hesitation
during shifts, hard shifts, or defuel patterns, all of which are normal:
