It sounds like you need to do a calibration update?
When do you see this error message?

The Predator is not perfect, like you told before mike ? All that waiting for a programmer who even don't work out of the box... You where not bashing superchips about that ?

Lie lie lie... Hope people will see your poor situation...

Do you know the difference between a defective unit and all of them having a problem? If one out of 100 units has a problem that's a 1% margin of error in manufacturing which is good. Now if one in 500 has a problem that's only a .5% margin of error which is great. Things happen when manufacturing. It happens with every company. That's why auto lemon laws exist. Somtimes something comes off the assembly line that wasn't made the way it was supposed to. It happens, and the fact they took care of it so fast, without a revision update means they don't have a problem with their software.

I know all that, but Mike and Diablo don't...

But I could tell than it will be more than just 1% of error... Already more than that here on the forum.
So you know how statistics work?
That means from this forum you can tell how many people don't have problems with their predators right. I can tell you that over 280 of these are in users hands already. Very few are reporting problems that aren't connected to end users doing something incorrectly.

Why aren't you on the superchips forum already. I thought you were buying that a long time ago.
