    Go to V1 website and download the owners manual. Also click on specs tab and "How to reprogram V1" and print that out. You will want to know what software version you have, but that is all covered in the How to reprogram.

    The "P" means the settings have been changed from factory default.

    It shouldn't dispay "P". The display should be "A", "L" or "l". Now you know why it was only $200. It's busted. Can you post a picture of the display, or maybe a video of the startup? What version is it?

    P means the setting have been changed, go into the settings menu and change all of the arrows up, follow this guide. Ask Mike - Report #3 The L means logic mode, read the instruction book on how to use these settings.
