Default I am completely lost, REALLY need a hand

Hey everyone....Here's my story.

I'm completely and totally lost. I am willing to bet the info I need is on this forum somewhere....but I'm such a Noob I don't even know what terms to search for.

I'm a dad, I decided to upgrade my kid's ECX Boost for Christmas. Bought a bunch of stuff from Hobby King. I actually have it all hooked up and installed....the part I can't figure out is how to program the ESC? I have this programming box thing and it has all these settings like 'Boost timing' 'Brake Frequency' 'Punch Profile' Voltage Cut-Off' -

This stuff may as well be written in Latin.....I don't have a clue what a punch profile is, or what percentage my drag brake should be?????

In short, none of this makes any sense to me, I don't have a clue what to do.

HELP!

Here's the motor /ESC combo - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...arehouse_.html

Here's the program card I have - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...arehouse_.html

Everyone...nevermind...I had the motor plugged into the program card backwards. So, it works now.

Still could use an explanation of what these terms mean, i.e. what settings am i choosing.

Now cannot get the throttle calibrated. Starting to wish I just bought the kid a GD dog!!!
