I would help you but im not familiar with that card.

I would post it here for a answer.

Mine had to be plugged into the fan connector on the ESC to work right. Unplug the fan and plug the box into the ESC that way.

With the V2 esc it used the receiver plug (servo plug). V3 esc (and SCT PRO) use the fan/program port directly on the esc.

I dont know if it matters but on my SCT PRO I had to use a fresh fully charged battery. I tried to program it with a battery that had 5-6 mins of run time on it and the card would not talk to the ESC. Swapped out a fresh battery and it started to work.

I have tried both ways.. still notta .. shows the same values as in my pictures above...I will try a fresh battery i guess..

are you sure you have the connector from the esc to the LED box in the correct way. I haven't used the LED box for a longtime, and have only used it with the ezrun series of esc, but make sure that the white wire is going to the signal (square wave) indicator on the led box. Try pushing the "item" button to see if it connects.

the fan plug is totally different than the plug this programmer came with ..the fan plug is 2 prong... the plug supplied is 3 prong which uses the white wire when pluged into the reciever.. the fan plug only has 2 prongs and a 2 prong plug .. i make shifted a wire...

As I said before, with the v2 esc you need to use the receiver plug (not the fan plug). Remove it from the receiver (ch2) and plug it into the programming card, with the white wire going to the "signal label". Sorry, I don't have the LED programmer, as it is basically useless now with the newer LCD programmers available.

I'm not even sure that the LED programmer (which you have) is compatible with the Xerun series ESC. I've only used the LED programmer years ago with an EZrun series ESC.

i have already tried this .. the picture shows the results..

Made sure the receiver is not plugged in at all. The HW esc has a hard wired cord on the esc that runs to receiver. You unplug that plug to the receiver. You take the three wire jumper orient it as labeled +-s(?) and plug it into programming card on one end and the other plugs into fan port on esc. Hope this helps
