Low or high voltage can damage any electronic device, but you said you tried programming the truck back to stock. Did that complete without error? If so, the programmer is not faulty and has booted properly. I suspect you simply do not have correct values for the Tire Size (TS) and/or Gear Ratio (GR). Re-initiate a custom program sequence, but this time, go to the Custom Options menu and if it's a monochrome Gryphon, go immediately to "Load Previous Settings" as the FIRST step. Then, check both the TS and GR. They should be what you had before (the TS could be "slightly" different). If they are not right, correct them, then complete the programming cycle.
If the unit did not program back to stock properly, it probably did not boot correctly when you fixed the battery problem. If this is a monochrome Gryphon, unplug it from the OBD port and leave it unplugged for about a minute. Then, turn the ignition in the truck ON (don't start the engine) and leaving it on, plug the programmer back in. It should show your hex code as it boots up. After that, things should be back to normal.
To reboot a CS or CTS, just unplug it, wait a minute and plug it back in. The ignition can be either on or off.
Let us know what happens.
