Bitwriter problem

I finally got my hands on the BitWriter manual, but it is very generic and basically just tells what the buttons on the unit do. 

When I hooked the BitWriter up to my truck with a 791XV installed I get the following codes (in no particular order, but this is a good sample):

System Arming Mode

Swamprat has been helping me with this (thanks again) but we are both stumped at these codes.   I thought it might be the 1.6 chip that I got off eBay, so I put the 1.4 chip back in.  Now it says that it is not a valid system.   The BItWriter seems to function properly with the 1.6 chip in it (read, file, write) but the codes have me stumped

Any ideas?

No. I got the 1.6 because I didn't read the auction close enough.  I thought I was getting complete Bitwriter at a "too good to be true" price of $22.00 NR.  It had been listed in the wrong area and no-one had even looked at it.....I think it had three views in a week.  After I bought it I saw that it was just the chip, but since it was my fault for not reading the description I saw no reason to back out of the sale. 

When I bought the BitWriter it had the 1.4 chip in it.  As far as I know, it was working fine.  I got it from a guy who had been doing installs and hadn't used it in quite some time.  I think he is using a laptop now. 

Is it possible that once a file is written to the system in v1.5 or v1.6 that the v1.4 chip can't access it?

I pulled mine apart out of curiousity.  Is the version chip the small one or the large one?

it's the small one.
