Default limp mode while logging

I was logging my d16z6 p28 with freelog through hulog xtreme. No rtp. Suddenly, after altering a few cmd codes from stock, trying to get my rpms to show correctly, I wind up in limp mode. Turn off and on twice, and no change. Third time, I get a clean crank, the cel light flashes and then stays on and Im limping again. Cut j1, and no problems. The only thing I did to the car was rev in park. Any ideas why this happened? Also, does anyone have opinions on uberdata? Freelog is giving me funky readings.

Edit: Forgot to mention that when it was flashing the cel, the ignition switch was clicking.

Default Re: limp mode while logging

uberdata has just as many bugs. the limp mode was unrelated, you can't hurt an ecu by changing freelog protocol. I'm willing to bet you have a bad solder point in your chip section or the chip was either improperly programmed or is bad.
OR, since you were having trouble reading your RPM, you may just have a bad sensor/wiring at the distributor (or you fried the ecu from a bad chip job). sometimes it takes a little before it throws you in limp mode.
