Default LC-1 reading too rich...how program it to correct?

I spent the morning reading all the LC-1 threads and I still need some help. I also posted this on the EFILive forums but haven't gotten a response as of yet.
I'm using EFILive V7.5.7 build 180. I programmed my LC-1 by following the instructions in the EFILive LC-1 Installation Tutorial and I have a suspicion that I need to correct the way the I programmed it and I need some help. My readings seem too rich. For example at idle i'm getting ~13.23 on the LC-1, whereas on a dyno's A/F i'm getting stoich at idle. I followed these instructions to program it for EFILive:
"Set the Analog Out 1 to the following:
a. 0.88333 Volts at AFR: 10.00
b. 4.21667 Volts at AFR: 20.00"

However I noticed that these instructions are for V7.3, and I'm guessing that is why I seem to be getting readings that are too rich:
"Programming LC-1 for EFI Live
EFILive version 7.3 has an LC-1 calculation in the “sae_generic.txt” file. The LC-1’s programmable settings in this section are based on these calculations. If your file is different, different input values will be needed for the LM Programmer.
# Innovate LC-1 WBO2
# ========================
*CLC-00-926
V 0.0 5.0 .1 "{EXT.AD1}"
AFR 10.0 20.0 .2 "({EXT.AD1}*3)+7.35"
*CLC-00-927
factor 0.0 2.0 .1 "{CALC.AFR_LC11.AFR}/{GM.AFR}"
*CLC-00-928
V 0.0 5.0 .1 "{EXT.AD2}"
AFR 10.0 20.0 .2 "({EXT.AD2}*3)+7.35"
*CLC-00-929
factor 0.0 2.0 .1 "{CALC.AFR_LC12.AFR}/{GM.AFR}"

Could someone help me out with the correct way for me to program the LC-1 for V7.5.7?
Is that my problem? Or am I on the wrong track?
I don't know how to find the sae_generic.txt file referred to in the instructions.

Look under my documents/efi live / user config. The calc pids text file is there. Make sure the pid matches the voltages set in your lc1. I'm not an expert but it's what I would look for. Blk02ws6 or joecar would be the guys to get you setup

Thanks. I was able to navigate to where you said. Sorry for being an idiot but I still can't find that file: sae_generic.txt

the pids you have listed above will be in the calc_pids.text file. you need to find the lc1 pids and verify that the voltages listed match what you have setup in the lc1

Just make your own pid. Enter the values given from innovate and input them into the excel file.

It won't let me upload it, but search on hptuners for wideband transfer function and there should be an excel file. Or you can give me your email and I can email it to you.
