Rob,

I think there might be an issue with one or more of the files in your project folder. If this was mine, I would:

0) Save a current MSQ file, then download the attached firmware and INI (below), and burn the firmware to the controller as detailed here: http://www.msgpio.com/manuals/mshift/V5code.html#load
Monitor_5099zviii.abs.s19
(83.16 KiB) Downloaded 560 times
GPIO_MShift_5099.ini
(278.17 KiB) Downloaded 565 times
1) If TunerStudio is open, shut it down. Zip the project folder to a safe place (such as beta_2 that you posted) to keep as a backup.
2) Delete the project folder from the TunerStudioProjects folder.
3) Open TunerStudio and and look for the 'Create New Project' link.
4) Click the 'Create New Project link.
5) Name the project anything you like (such as beta_3).
6) Click the 'Other/Browse' check box and navigate to the INI you downloaded from this post, then click on it. Do not 'Detect' the firmware or use any other INI that TS suggests.
7) Select the units Settings as appropriate when prompted.
8) Set the Comm setting to match your serial connection.
9) Select finish and you *should* be set up correctly.
10) Download your MSQ to the controller. Because this firmware is newer than what you have been using, it will have a setting or two that you didn't have and this will generate a warning (which you can ignore and which will only occur once).

Let us know how this goes.

Lance.

SUCCESS! Looks like it works well now Lance!
I took your advice and created a new project using the 5.099zviii firmware and the accompanying .ini you posted.
Drove the car for about an hour with no issues and was able to tweak the tune while staying connected :)
I'll drive it for the next week to work and see how things go.

Thanks for all your Help and Patience!
Rob

Rob,

Great, I'm glad that worked! And thank you for your patience, I know these things can be unbearably frustrating.
