Default Power Commander V Problem

I have a 2011 SG with the Power Commander V. I have the Rev Extend enabled and it works. The problem is that my tach stops at the orgional setting, somewere around 5700.

Any ideas if this is normal or more importantly if there is a way to corrrect it so the tach works to 6200?

normal............................................ .................................................. ............ when I used a PC V I had it enabled and I ran a dyno for shyts and giggles.
I found that my HP and TQ fell off right after I reached 5700. I then disengaged the Revextend as I feel the extra RPM wasn't needed.
@ the time I had SE A/C, V&H Ovals, SE 10 1/2-1 pistons and SE 259E cam.
They is a way to have the tach read up to but I fergot how to make it do that. But it aint needed as the Revextend, when enabled, only allows RPM up to 6200. I may be wrong, but this is the what my research told me.....

I guess it is only on the new bikes with fly-by-wire controls. Anyone else have any solutions?

Power Commander has a good looking website with support and contact details. Try calling their technical support.

I called Power Commander and they say it is just a problem with their system. They suggested programming the ECM with a stage 1 which would raise the rpm to 6,200 and the shut off the rev extend on the Power commander. Is this possible?
