Upgrade your Evo Upgrade your Edge Evolution to a Gryphon Programmer to allow for custom tuning and additional functionality.

Due to issues with the cable failures due to incompatible versions of firmware, we do not offer upgrades
or tuning for the 1997-2003 F-Series gas or 7.3L diesel trucks. We recommend using another platform.

What do you mean when you say you're "updating your Gryphon"? What is it you are trying to update? If it's the firmware and version information, please be sure you've read all of this thread, or you might be wiping out your custom tunes. And, if you really want to update the firmware and version through Pegasus, I'm pretty sure you have to have returned your truck to Level 0 first - did you do that? (Edit: I just read another thread that confirms that you need to be in Level 0 to update the firmware and version info).

First, are you using the [Targeted Functions] update? You MUST use this to download CUSTOM calibrations.

Second, are you on a wireless network? I have found that some wireless networks can cause download issues. Relocating closer to the wireless access point might help if that's the case.

Third, make absolutely sure the programmer is returned to stock before updating. If not, all sorts of not-so-fun things can happen.

Let me know if you still can't get things going.

hey Bill, thank so much for calling me and sorry i missed your call but I was able to fix it, using the gryphon update button was giving me those errors but I tried that targeted button before i left my house earlier and it seemed to have put my custom tunes on my programmer and i was able to test it on my hour drive to my gfs house.....started with the 87 Performance one, and i have to say, WOW!!!

Mac really does have alot of power and doesn't lag like he use to.

Thank You for help.

Glad to hear you're pleased!

You may be too young to remember this one, Jonathan (Oh, Gosh... that's when you know you're getting old -- when you start sentences with "You may be too young to remember... ), but there used to be a ketchup commercial -- Heinz, I think -- where everyone was waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting for the ketchup to finally drip out of the bottle.

Carly Simon's "Anticipation" played during the whole thing except at the end when I believe the voice over claimed, "It's slow good." It was all about the outcome being worth the wait.

Every time I see a customer really dying to get his tunes, I think of that commercial.
