Intercept-X technical help needed

Set car up in the winter (over the phone with mazsport) and now that it is hot it seems like the idle is too low when the AC is on. It idles at around 1000 when off and 900 (bumps 880-900ish) when the AC is on. The car does not idle smooth at that number. It idles smooth at 1050-1100. Is there an easy way to have the interceptor raise the idle up. Not familiar with all the technical terms for the PC program so I need basic idiot proof advice.

you dont need to "raise the idle up", you just need to richen up your a/f mixture when in idle and under load. Once you do that your idle will return back to normal. Like varney said, a tech should be able to help you over the phone.
