If I recall it correctly (haven't had the opportunity to play with Fullprof for 
a few years) Sycos is an instrument misalignment/sample transparency correction 
parameter.  Perhaps you are using an impossible initial value for it - should 
be very close to zero.  As I share with my students on occasion, RTFM (at least 
for instances of F = fantastic).
