NEED HELP SCT LIVE WIRE

I was just outside adjusting the alarm parameters for my live wire tuner when it froze up I tried holding ESC to see if it would turn off.....after several mins and nothing I unplugged the Tuner to turn it off. When I attempted to turn it back on the screen says.....
Invalid Block Read ID
-442503144
2048
-1770012576
I tried to hold the ESC Button to turn it on and get nothing. I unplugged it and took it inside and hooked to usb on computer and get the same thing!
Does anyone have any Idea what is going on with my tuner?
Is it safe to drive the truck without the tuner hooked up? I have always had the tuner plugged in since the dpf delete.
Any ideas to fix this would be great as I have to drive the truck in the morning and SCT is closed until monday.

I am assuming I am ok to drive the truck since my program has been flashed to the ecu. I just want to double check on here before I leave work in the am.

the tuner is left plugged in to give you live data and function as a gauge.

the tuning is stored in your PCM. You should be fine to drive the truck. My only concern is that the tuner experienced an error while connected to the truck. I'd suggest you start the truck and make sure nothing is out of the ordinary.
