    What are you trying to do? Have you gone through the getting started threads in the sticky at the top of this section? It goes through some of the basic graphs which should at least get you familiar with the new version. The new version is much, much nicer, though old habits die hard, as they say
    Post a log and tune if you want help

    If your having a hard time, the tuning school has some layouts on their site you can download and save that will get you started. Also, there are a few videos on youtube that show how to setup items on the scanner as well.

    Some of my configs I have had for so long I forgot how I made them. I did read through the stickies it helped some. Then I read on a thread where a guy said to open an old log and save channels as. Did that which got me all my stuff back. The generic map sensor was one of the ball busters it only wanted to do 1bar. I have a two bar and it didn't want to go along with it. But by saving my old log channels it worked perfect. I just got my Tahoe back up after months of a Trans headache (fedex broke my new flt 80e and didn't want to pay out). New 80e is in and now I can data log again. Yay!!!

    Off topic this flt 4l80e is bad ass!! But my bucking issue is still alive and well and that's what I'm trying to get rid of. You can probably see it in the log I posted. I can't tune below 30kpa on the VE and that's where the buck happens.

    Your log attachment didn't load for me (says invalid). Also post your Documents>HP Tuners>Settings>VCM Suite file (thanks Carson :-) ) With the log we can see your channel config and save it like you read. The Layout will give us you Chart, Graph and Gauge layouts and The VCM Suite.cfg will give us you offline profile for the vehicle you are scanning.

    Feeling benevolent this morning :-), here is a default layout we use in our training course. Also requires a Dyn Airmass parmameter which is included. Use what you need and resave (suggest you save the default as is for later use). Also, setup your Channels accordingly. You will need to complete the filters and such (very rudimentary) but should get you started.

    As Carson said, if you go to the top of the sticky in the scanner section you will find graphics and YouTube videos we developed to assist in the learning curve.....

    Thanks for the help every one. I think I got this thing figured out. The Tahoe logger work and I made one for my 5.3 swapped Colorado. Going to try it out today.
