mode and will show "USB cable connected"

IS NOT shown in the AEM DashDesign interface.
· Once the setup has been received the flash will be erased; the AEM CD-7 / CD-7L will show "Erasing
flash". This process will take a few seconds.
· Once the flash has been erased, it will be programmed; the AEM CD-7 / CD-7L will show the progress of
programming as a percentage. Do not remove the power to the display at this point.
