Today we have released the new version 2.39 of our Windows based miniMax program. You can download the program free of charge from the eMax-Tuning website.

With this new version the newly released firmware versions 4.9.5 for DU-E80X0 (DU-E8000, DU-E8080), 4.7.7 for DU-E7000 and DU-E61X0 (DU-E6100, DU-E6100-CRG, DU-E6110, DU-E6180) as well as 4.1.11 for DU-EP800, DU-EP800-RS, DUEP800-CRG could be optimized in the well known ways (e.g. changing destination settings or wheel circumference) with a cable bound PCE – interface.

Please keep in mind that starting with these newly released motor frmware versions it is no more possible to downgrade to an earlier motor firmware!

We also already have found possibilities to increase the max. motor support speed of these new generation drive units EP801 (DU-EP801) and EP6 (DU-EP600) and its “RS” (Orbea) and “CRG” (Cargo) variants, see this German forum post of us.

We are working very hard to provide this functionality also in our software soon.

We flawlessly have optimized a lot of bikes with these new generation drive units via personal service (also possible via internet remote control) already.

So, if you are interested in optimizing your EP801 or EP6 based bike (or any other Shimano STePS based bike), just send an email to us and we will assist you.

Today we have released the new version 2.38 of our Windows based miniMax program. You can download the program free of charge from the eMax-Tuning website.

With this new version especially the optimizing possibilities for the new generation drive units EP801 (DU-EP801) and EP6 (DU-EP6) and its variants RS (for Orbea) and CRG (cargo) have been improved and enhanced.

Now you can change gearmode for the new electronic Di2 derailleurs RD-M8150-11 (XT), RD-M8150-12 (XT), RD-U6050 (CUES) and RD-U6070 (CUES) already in the licence key free version.

Also max. torque and max. peak power settings could be changed on the new motor types EP801 and EP6 already in the licence key free version. This could be a great advantage on the reduced “RS” motor versions which are used in the new Orbea bikes. See also this German forum post of us.

Since many months we are intensively analysing the new motor generation drive units DU-EP801 (EP801), DU- EP600 (EP6), EP801-RS and EP6-RS to find appropriate optimising possibilities.

Currently you can use the Windows based miniMax – program and a cable – bound PCE – interface already in the licence free version to unleash the full max. torque and max. peak power of the „RS“ – versions on the new drive units of the Orbea bikes from current modelyear 2023, see also in this German forum post of us.

The latest eMaxMobileApp version 1.63 is ready for download in Apple AppStore and Google PlayStore.

Additionally to the already supported drive – units and firmware versions this version now supports the newly released motor firmware versions:

4.4.9 for the DU-E5000, DU-E5080 and DU-E5080-H drive units

4.7.6 for the DU-E6000, DU-E6110, DU-E6100-CRG and DU-E6180 drive units

4.7.6 for the DU-E7000 drive units

4.1.10 for the DU-EP800 (EP8), DU-EP800-RS (EP8-RS) and DU-EP800-CRG drive units

TAKE CARE: Although this version of eMaxMobileApp is partially compatible with all the latest motor firmware versions of all drive units, it is NOT possible to change bike settings in order to increase max. motor support speed via Bluetooth!

Also some of the light related functionality is not or only partially available with the newest firmware versions from Shimano.

If you want to speed up your bike with the latest motor firmware versions or need special light functionality, you can use the latest version of our Windows based miniMax program in combination with a PCE interface or you can downgrade to a previous motor firmware (see documents in the support section).
