Send scarter (Dynojet) a PM and ask him to post a reply to your question.
He has been on the Performance forum quite a bit helping out with questions.
Please let us know how the PC-V works out for you.

did you buy the PC5 from Dynotech Jim? If yes and you talked to him before hand it would have come loaded with the best available map for your sled.
i did great guy to work with.he put the best map on but santa brought an slp pipe setup so he emailed me a new map.i figured out the problem was with the usb cable that came with the pcv.new map downloaded ready to go.cant wait!!!

Wonderful, Thank you! What the hype? Doesn't look like it's adjustable on the fly like and attitude or Boondocker box. ?????
pc-5 or pc-3 hype
Yes you can not adjust on the go except the pc-5 has 2 maps in it and can be switched in the field. The plus is that you can fine tune the fuel map way better with the pc-5 and the numbers you enter act in direct amount to the exsisting ECU as it responds to changes.Once you develop a good map,you don't have to change things ever again. I posess no computer skills and this is the easiest and most accurate fuel box that I have ever used.

PCV wow!!!
ok so i was able to do some "backyard boondocking" after installing my pcv and all i can say is wow!when i parked this sled last night i had a midrange stumble,a tip in hesitation,the detonation light would flicker and it would give an ocasional back fire...today all gone.i had a hundred miles of those problems on the 2010 update and a 2 minute install of the pcv with dynotech jims map has cured all ailments!now i know this is just in the yard and i will be out tomorrow to try and log some "real' mileage.but as of right now i could not be any happier.i would have called jim the same day i bought my sled had i known what an easy fix this was.

You may have already figured this out because it sounds like you have your PCV working. But I thought I would try to answer anyway.
When you send a map to the power commander you should recieve a message that appears in the bottom of the screen that tells you that the map has been sent succesfully. If you are still in doubt you can hit "get map" to pull the map from the power commander to see if it is what you want.
Don't for get to hit the send map before you close the software, I can't tell you how many times I have seen people forget this.
