Default Changing tunes

What is the recommended way to change tunes? can you change from tune to tune as you drive down the road? or do you have to stop and change? or do you have to turn the ignition to just on to change tunes. I looked but can't find any info on this. Thanks

What platform or device are you using? The hardware that you're using will dictate how it functions.

I have a 2002 f250 7.3. The tuner I installed is the Hydra.

There is no reason to stop the vehicle or engine when changing tunes so long as all of the calibrations "burned" to the Hydra are of the same calibration family.

It is not recommended to change them on acceleration or when doing something such as driving through an intersection, railroad crossing, or the drive through JUST IN CASE a stall occurs (rare).

Sounds good, thanks for the reply. Full Force set it up before they sent it to me so all calibrations should be spot on. Thanks again!
