I then performed the "Print Use and Statistics" function for both systems, printed the results, and compared them to the Configuration file with 3 Profiles which I had downloaded. All device information and Profile A/B/C Settings match exactly what I had selected. I don't know what caused the CHECKSUM FAILED message, but everything appears normal and OK. I'll probably be checking one of my car's ALP systems in the near future to verify the system is operating correctly and providing maximum protection.

Thanks for the advice.

Luckily I had no Checksum Fail messages. I copied update and config to my USB and everything updated without issue.

Why not just update the version info on the site? It's not like people check it every day or even every week. I typically do not even visit the site unless there is an announcement made here.

You would be surprised how many people use website monitors to get notices when a website changes. There are probably hundreds that jump on the site the second it gets updated online.

This is driving me nuts.

I loaded my old config file into the configuration page and used the old config file to generate a new config file. Then just to check that the format was okay, I selected all of the same options and then generated a brand new file from scratch. I then diffed both files to make sure that they matched, but no matter what I do, I cannot get the two files to match. I have double, triple, and quadruple checked all of the selected options with side by side browser tabs, and I can't even be 100% sure that the new file is the same as the old. There are 5 bytes that differ in the two files:

I mentioned several values have changed. Just create a new Config.alp file from scratch and you will be good to go.

So what you're basically saying is that not only is it not okay to reuse the old config files (we knew this already), but it's also not okay to load an old config file and use that configuration to generate a new config file?

If we change values and you load old values you will still end up with incorrect values. Not sure what is difficult to follow? We said that values have changed and you will need to create a new config file. It will take you less than 2 minutes to create a new settings file.

Not when you use 3 Profiles and have different STiR+ and LID/DLI settings in each. It's a royal pain to generate those config files, and involves opening two browser tabs and clicking back and forth to make sure I didn't miss anything.

We ask users maybe once or twice a year to create a new config file. You can create one profile will all settings and then copy it to B & C and make the changes. It should take no longer than 5 minutes and I would bet you have wasted more than that trying to compare the different files.
