gine performance and monitoring enhancements in the automotive aftermarket. This product is easy
to install on any applicable vehicle; all operations of the PMT take place in-cab and feature on-the-y
adjustments. This owners manual comes with both installation instructions and operating instructions.
For free technical support and all product related questions call: 866-285-5936.

Parts Description
PARTS DESCRIPTION
This section describes each of the parts in the Bill of Materials, the descriptions provide a physical set of
attributes and a purpose for each part. The parts descriptions also list everything that is included in each
assembly.
The PMT Head Unit
The main component is the PMT Head Unit. The Head Unit is
the interface in which you control vehicle performance pa-
rameters. It is also the brains that will save vehicle activity
and defuel a vehicle. Notice that the head unit has: seven to-
tal buttons, ve on the left side and two on the right, a large
color screen, an electronic plug for docking on the bottom and
a snap hinge on the top also used for docking. Note that this is
the last piece that you will install.
Note: PMT includes a SD card inserted in the side of
the Head Unit.
PMT Cradle with Cradle Cable and Power Wire
The cradle itself is the docking station for the PMT Head
Unit. It acts as the means of communication for the PMT.
Notice that two wires come out of the bottom back side of
the cradle, the Cradle Cable and the Power Wire. During the
installation, the Cradle Cable runs to the OBDII Adapter Plug
and the Power Wire runs to the vehicle fuse box.
OBDII Adapter Plug
The OBDII Adapter is rectangular and has a total of four
electronic ports. The largest port on the top of the adapter
plugs into the vehicle OBDII port. The three smaller ports on
the sides include: a Cradle Cable port on one side, and on the
opposite side a 4 Pin PCH Cable port and a 5 Pin Peripheral
port. The main purpose of the OBDII Adapter Plug is to act
as a hub for all communication lines between the PMT and
the vehicle.

Pyrometer Connection Head (PCH) Board Assembly
The PCH Board or Pyrometer Connection Head serves as a dock to connect the pyrometers into the PMT
system. The PCH Board includes the ability to connect two pyrometers. Attached to the PCH Board housing
is a cable with four pin plug which connects to the OBDII Adapter Plug. The list below includes all separate
parts that make up the entire PCH Board Assembly.
• PCH Board
• Velcro
• (2) Self-tapping Sheet Metal Screws
• Pyrometer Cable
Dash/Windshield Mounting Assembly
This mounting assembly is recommended mainly for use on the dash of the vehicle, but can also be used in
the same manner on the windshield of the vehicle. The assembly includes all parts and pieces necessary to
mount the cradle, along with the PMT to the vehicle dash or windshield. The list below includes all parts and
pieces of this assembly (must be assembled by installer):
• Mounting Base
• Top Cradle Arm
• Bottom Cradle Arm
• Top Aluminum Plate
• Bottom Steel Plate (threaded)
• (2) Flat-head Screws
• Double Stick Foam Tape.

Custom A-Pillar Mount Assembly
This mounting assembly enables the PMT to be mounted on the Custom A-Pillar Pod on the driver’s side of
the vehicle. Using this mounting style does require that a Custom A-Pillar Pod be purchased from Bully Dog,
but it also oers the cleanest install.
The Custom A-Pillar Mount Assembly includes:
• Front Mounting Plate
• Back Mounting Plate
• (4) Mounting Screws
USB to SD Card Adapter
This Card Reader is used to update the PMT’s SD memory card . It is used primarily for internet updates.

to help reference the general location of installed parts and pieces of the PMT. Notice that there are three
dierent overview diagrams. Each diagram is vehicle specic; one for Dodge, Ford and GM. The rest of the
installation instructions will instruct how to install the PMT in detail.

PMT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These installation instructions are split into ve sections. Each section provides a comprehensive description
of installation for all vehicle applications. The ve sections are:
• SECTION 1: Mounting the Cradle
•SECTION 2: Installing the Pyrometer and the PCH Board
•SECTION 3: Installing the OBDII Adapter
•SECTION 4: Installing the Power Wire
•SECTION 5: Proper docking and removal of the PMT from the Cradle
SECTION 1: MOUNTING THE CRADLE
In this section you will decide where to mount the PMT Cradle, so you are essentially choosing the location
for the PMT inside the vehicle cab. First, decide which mounting style you will choose for the PMT; we oer
three dierent styles of mounting:
1.Custom A-Pillarmounting (most recommended)
2.Dash mounting
3.Windshieldmounting
The following mounting instructions outline how to mount the PMT, explaining each mounting style
individually.

CUSTOM APILLAR MOUNTING
We recommend the Custom A-Pillar mounting style, because it makes for the best looking, most conve-
nient and least intrusive mounting style. The Custom A-Pillar mounting style does require that a Custom
A-Pillar Pod be purchased from Bully Dog; see part numbers and vehicle applications for a Custom A-Pil-
lar Pod in the appendix. The Custom A-Pillar mounting assembly comes in separate pieces and rst needs
to be assembled before it is installed.

2. With all assembly pieces gathered, refer to the Pillar Pod Mount Assembly Diagram for a visual
reference on how the assembly ts together. Steps 3 through 6 explain how to assemble the pieces,
the A Pillar Mount Diagram shows what the assembled mounting style looks like.
Note that installation instructions for each vehicle specic Custom A-Pillar Pod are included
with the Custom A-Pillar Pod, and are not described here.
3. Insert the ball that is on the back of the cradle into the lower hole on the front of the Front Mount-
ing Plate and then shift the ball into the center of the Front Mounting Plate. Make sure that the
extruded part of the Front Mounting Plate is facing the cradle when inserting the ball.
4. Run the Cradle Cable and Power Wire through the lower hole on the front of the Front Mounting
Plate and then through the hole on the front side of the Custom A-Pillar Pod. Pull all of the slack in
the Cradle Cable and PowerWire through the Front Mounting Plate and the Custom A-Pillar Pod.
5.With the Cradle still attached, put the Front Mounting Plate up to the hole on the Custom A-Pillar
Pod,thenplacetheBackMountingPlateuptothe backsideoftheofthe holeontheCustomA-Pillar
Pod. Make sure that the slot on the Back Mounting Plate is pointing downward like in the Custom
A-Pillar Pod Mount Assembly Diagram so the Cradle Cable and Power Wire can get through the
mount and down to the OBDII Adapter Plug and vehicle fuse box.
6.Use the four mounting screws to secure the connection of all pieces in the assembly. Tighten the
screws all the way down. See the Custom A-Pillar Pod mount diagram, nished assembly should
look identical.
7.To install the A-Pillar Pod Mount assembly on a vehicle refer to the instructions included with the
Custom A-Pillar Pod.
8.Run the end of the Cradle Cable and Power Wire down through the driver’s side of the vehicle
dash and pull all of the extra slack in the cable down also. The Cradle Cable plug will need to be
connected to the OBDII Adapter Plug and the PowerWire will need to be hooked to a fuse in the
vehicle fuse box.

TIGHTENING THE CUSTOM APILLAR MOUNT SCREWS TIP
The four screws included with the Custom A-Pillar Mount work in pairs to perform two dierent
functions in securing the cradle to the Custom A-Pillar Mount. See the diagram below for details in
tightening the screws properly.
These two screw locations
tighten the mount to the A-
Pillar itself. Only completely
tighten these screws down
when the mount is in the
A-pillar and the A-pillar is
installed on the vehicle.
These two screw locations
tighten the front and back
mounting plates together
to create a tight t over the
cradle ball. Use these two
screws to adjust the tight-
ness of the swivel eect of
the cradle in the mount.

DASH MOUNTING
Dash mounting is a quick and easy way to mount the PMT. The dash mounting pieces do require some as-
sembly. Dash mounting requires all parts in the dash mount assembly diagram (pg. 15).
TO ASSEMBLE:
1.GathertheDashMounting assemblypieces:
• Top Mounting Arm
• Bottom Mounting Arm
• The Cradle with Cradle Cable
• Dash Mounting Base with Foam Tape
• Top Plate
• Bottom plate (with threads)
• (2) Flat-Head Screws
2. Insert the metal top plate into the recessed area on top of the top mounting arm and hold it in place
while inserting the bottomplate into the bottommountingarm(note:thebottom plate has threaded
screwholes).
3. Bring the armstogether withtheends ofthearmscoveringtheball onthecradleback andtheball on
