couple of things have gone wrong here. 

-- Firmware does need to be updated to 4.12 according to the date of production and the latest installation guide. 

-- The options in the unit are improperly set up. 

 

To solve all this...

1. Reset the EVO: http://fortin.ca/en/download/61931/61931.pdf

2. Flash firmware 4.12

3. Turn ON appropriate options (C1 + D1)

4. Reprogram unit to vehicle and redo the Dcryptor process.
