Default Adjusting idle RPM in Tunercat w/ M6...

I must be doing something wrong trying to raise the idle RPM in my current tune.

I am using Tunercat and adjusting:
IAC target RPM vs coolant (neutral/park)

I raised it from 800 RPM to 950 RPM in the applicable fields and when it is running, it seems to still be at 800 RPM. Even on TTS Datamaster, idle RPM still indicates 800 RPM.

Is there something else I need to change?
Am I doing something wrong?

Rather solid 35 points.
I am certain the IAC is good.

Won't do that if you save the file after making the changes and before programming it.

Put the same numbers in both idle speed tables.
