You should see a PHP splash screen on the programmer now when it boots on your truck.

And, unless things have changed, this advice applies:
In the main menu on the monochrome Gryphon, select [Diagnostics] -> [Tech Support] -> [Version Info]. (You can ignore the warning message that will come up). In the newer Gryphons, 04+, the "Calibration Version" should look like "0.x.xxxx" where the last 4 x's are (usually) the same as the Serial Number. If the Version number DOES begin with zero ("0"), you have custom tuned files. If the Version begins with one ("1") though, so it looks like "1.x.xxxx", then the unit has canned tunes, not custom.

Again - any calibration that looks like 0.x.xxxx is a CUSTOM build. All calibrations that begin with "1", i.e., 1.x.xxxx are CANNED calibrations in the newer model Gryphons.

But, any programmer with a Product Number that looks like --> Ex.xx.xx <-- is an older platform unit and the Power Programming Menu display cannot be changed. And, on those units, if the last 2 digits are "99" then it is always a custom file.

So, an older model Gryphon with a Product Number that looks like "Ex.xx.99" has custom tunes too.
The programming of your PCM with custom tunes should not seem different than things were when you had canned tunes.
