Im trying to connect to my vs v8 5.7l commodore.It has a modified memcal.

I have the car off , i plug in the cable, turn the program on
i have selected the vehicle gmh-vr68vs8,i have ticked the serial 1/0.I selected the option from the left side then i hit
f3 button then all that happens is i get a long message coming up on the right side of the screen.
