And, they had a lot of long term techs and engineers that really understood the system and knew the answers. It has gone thru a few leadership changes so things have probably changed. I would call them and get thru to a field engineering guy or similar. Drill down until you find a long term employee. Hopefully, he can enlighten you as to the problem. When I purchased my -50X system a long time ago, I had initial problems with the guidance part of it. I was able to find a VP that understood what I was dealing with and made it possible to correct it. I have not experienced any problems with my AP and knock on wood ....
