    Default AutoCal Modes?

    What does Full 1 full 2 ..etc mean? How is it different from Prog 1...etc??

    This was posted previously by someone else, but was never answered.
    The quick start guide does not discuss the 'Full' modes.

    Thanks,

    Jason

    I believe it's full flash versus calibration only flash.

    Just updated the documentation. The 'Prog' options are calibration only flash operations which should be performed under normal circumstances (unless directed by your tuner). The 'Full' options are full-flash operations and download both the operating system and calibration data to the ECM/TCM controller.

    So when not using a DSP tune and only trying to use the Autocal for individual tunes one would hook it up to the truck and just tune with the "program 1" and not full flash as im assuming full flash is for DSP tunes , correct?

    Depends, if LLY/LBZ/LMM then you can cal-flash, LB7s need a full reflash every time for DSP tunes.

    For non-DSP tunes, calibration only flashes are all that is required to change the tune (unless you're changing the OS).

    So this is how it works out. A cal-flash is performed generally for all ECMs except an LB7 with a DSP5 installed. The cutom tables on the LB7 DSP5 didn't all fit into the calibration memory area and overflowed in the OS area, thats whay afull-flash is required when changing a LB7 DSP5 calibration.

    You're fine with an LBZ to do cal-flashes.

    So even though im not using a dsp switch and tunes and am only running individual tunes it is still fine to just cal flash?
