Can't load kpro


I downloaded the latest kmanager after buying my used kpro. I did it with the ecu not hooked up, then i checked the lights (green steady,red flashing) so that checked out alright, plugged it into the laptop, turn the key to the on position and the bottom left corner still says ignition off. I think that is why i can't get into the options menu and erase/upload .cal's

Anybody know whats going on here? I am only running 1 version of kmanager as well, just can't figure it out from the help menu.

I drive with my ecu to the Acura dealership, they take my vin and enter it in the ecu, i load up kmanager and have the kpro then hooked up while they are doing this. Or do i go to honda?

No. I have the stock a3 and hks circle earth ground kit. You don't think i need that update on the kpro? I am double checking the grounds in a minute. Just curious if i have to spend the cash on the update, i hope not.
