Devices

The Devices Section

Open the Devices section from Section 1 of the bottom menu. Each accessory you've paired shows as a live card — an OBD2 gauge, the fuel gauge, the Power Box switches — with its connection status. A fresh profile starts empty; tap Add New Device to pair your first one.

The Devices section — each paired device shows as a live card (here OBD2, the fuel simulator and the Power Box).

Arranging the rows

The section stacks its rows in a fixed order out of the box — OBD2, CAN cable, fuel, Power Box, BMW Sync Box, cameras, TPMS, then everything else. Tap the up/down arrows icon in the bottom menu (just left of Add New Device) to set your own order instead: one card per row, with an arrow each way to move it. Changes apply as you make them, so you can watch the list rearrange behind the panel.

Rows for hardware you haven’t paired stay hidden either way — moving one only decides where it lands if you add that device later. Reset to Default Order puts everything back. Like your paired devices, the order is saved per rider profile.

Adding a Device

Add New Device opens a grid of the supported device types. Pick one and DMD² walks you through pairing — usually a Bluetooth scan that lists nearby units to tap, and for a few (the Power Box, OBD2 dongle) you pair once in your phone's Settings → Bluetooth first, then tap the device here.

The Add New Device grid — pick a type to pair (scroll for Insta360, GoPro, the fuel simulator and the Power Box).

Remotes & Controllers

Drive DMD² without touching the screen — ideal with gloves on. Reach for the map, navigation, cameras or the roadbook from your handlebars.

Test Remote Keys

At the bottom of any remote's settings page — below the button map, above Reset to Defaults — is Test Remote Keys. It opens a full-screen falling-blocks game that is driven entirely by your own button assignments, so playing a round proves every button on the bars actually reaches the app.

Every key you have mapped on that remote is listed beside the board. Press it once and it turns green with a tick — the header counts x / y tested and shows ALL KEYS OK when you have exercised the lot.

• A 360° joystick gets its own row with four direction pills, so a stick that only reports three directions is immediately obvious.
• Press a button that isn't assigned and the game names it on screen (“Unassigned key: …”) — usually the reason a button seems to do nothing. Common D-pad keys still drive the piece, so the game stays playable while you sort the mapping out.
• Long-press-only assignments show as Key check only: they share their physical button with a map function, so there is nothing extra for the game to do with them.
• The music can be switched off with the ♪ button in the header. Tapping the board rotates the piece, so you can play without a remote paired at all.

Keys are only accepted from the remote you opened the test on, so a second remote on the bars can't tick boxes for the one you are checking.

DMD Device Buttons

The physical buttons on your DMD unit can be mapped inside DMD2 itself, alongside your remotes. They appear in the Devices list as DMD Device Buttons — a device you never paired, because it is the hardware you are already holding.

Which buttons you see

Only the buttons your unit actually has are listed, so there is nothing on screen you cannot press:

The zoom keys and the screen-lock key are deliberately not listed: their behaviour is fixed and always available, which is exactly what you want from the two controls you reach for without looking.

Three gestures per button

Every listed button carries three independent slots — Press, Long Press and Double Tap — and all three choose from the same list:

• DMD2 functions — map zoom, GPX recording and waypoints, Quick Save Location, voice, trip and fuel resets, the theme toggles, screen orientation, and Group Help On / Off.
• Quick Actions — the same catalogue the Remote Controller Menu offers, including the Conditional ones (finish navigation, skip next point, invert direction…) and one entry per paired action camera.
• None — leaves that gesture doing nothing.

Anything the phone itself must do — switching apps, the notification shade, screenshots, the torch, brightness — stays in DMD Manage, because only Manage can perform those. Screen Touch Lock and Go to Device Home are the deliberate exceptions: they are frequent enough that both apps offer them.

Taking a button over

Open a button's card and one of two things happens. If DMD2 already owns it, you get the three slots. If Manage still owns it, the card says Assigned in Manage with a Take Assign button — one tap moves that button to DMD2, and the rest of your buttons stay exactly as they were. Simply mapping a gesture also takes the button over, so a mapping you make here can never sit idle behind a button Manage is still answering.

To hand one back, open DMD Manage and give that button a Manage function again. Forget device at the bottom of the editor hands all of them back at once.

Button mappings are stored per rider profile, like the rest of the Devices section — switch profile and your buttons change with it.

When the buttons stop working

Every device button and every remote reaches DMD2 through the accessibility service of DMD Manage, so if that service is turned off or stops running they all go quiet at once — on a NOR7E that includes the zoom keys. DMD2 notices within a few minutes and shows the notification Device buttons and remotes are off.

Tap it: DMD Manage opens and asks for its Controller Accessibility service. Choose Enable Now and switch the service on in Android's Accessibility settings — if it already shows as on, switch it off and on again, or restart the unit. The notification clears by itself once the service is running again.

Yamaha Ténéré 700 ABS Memory

The Ténéré 700 switches ABS back on every time you turn the ignition on, and switching it off means holding the ABS button on the dash for two seconds. With the CAN Cable plugged into the bike’s diagnostic connector, DMD Manage can do that for you, the way the plug-in “ABS memory” dongles do: it recognises the bike on its own and remembers how you like to start.

In DMD²

While Manage reports the bike, a Ténéré ABS row appears in Devices under the CAN Cable row, with an ABS lamp (green with ABS on, amber with ABS off), the state and the mode. It goes away again with the cable. Tap it for the full view:

• the state now (ABS ON, ABS OFF, Starting…, Switching… or Ignition off) and what last happened, with the time — for example ABS switched off at ignition;
• Switch ABS now: ABS on, and ABS off, which asks for a second tap (Tap again: ABS off) within three seconds;
• At every ignition: the three modes above. The mode belongs to the cable, so it is the same in DMD², DMD Manage and Mini Launcher.

From the handlebars, the Remote Controller Menu shows a Ténéré ABS row in the Devices family while the ignition is on. Its pill reads On or Off (amber when off); press it to switch ABS the other way, and the menu stays open so you can see the pill change. Ténéré ABS On / Off is also a Double Tap function. Neither asks for a second press, since a menu row or a double tap is already deliberate.

When it switches, and when it doesn’t

• It only ever switches ABS off on its own, and only with the bike standing, a few seconds after the ignition comes on — just as you would by holding the button.
• Once per ignition, and never after you pressed ABS back on yourself during that ride.
• Switching ABS off by hand, from DMD² or the remote, also needs the ignition on and the bike standing still; otherwise you see ABS off only with the bike standing still (the menu pill reads Stand still). Switching ABS on works at any time.
• The ABS light on the dash always shows the real state. If the ECU doesn’t answer, you see Couldn’t switch ABS off at ignition or ABS didn’t switch and ABS stays as the bike set it.

The cable also reads the Ténéré’s gear (1–6 and N), which the bike’s own OBD doesn’t offer: pick OBD · Gear for the speedometer area.

Action Cameras

Pair an action camera to start and stop recording from DMD² — from the Devices screen, a handlebar remote, or a map button. Three families are supported:
