Assume it is a V6 vehicle you're connecting to? Is it a factory chip or aftermarket? I'm aware of cases where the chip is an aftermarket piece and doesn't work the same as stock (and V4 won't work).

One thing that you could try, which has helped others with your error it lowering the Chatter T6 timing from to a value of 10 (often set to around 50).

if your using a VX ecotec with a flash PCM not the L67 memcal PCM then the device ID is $F7 not $F5

Can you email the text (as you sow in the screenshot) to me at support@efilive.com and I'll forward on to Paul (Blacky) - he's the V4 developer and expert.

Oh, I gather the comms is setup correctly? What baud rate are you using?
