It usually only takes a second or two before it engages, and when you pay enough attention you can sort of "feel" how the car pulls differently when it kicks in. It feels almost as though someone started very gently pushing the brakes. As an added bonus if you turn your AC on while you're in DFCO it doesn't really hurt your mileage. You can also feel how it's like someone's pushing that invisible brake pedal just a little harder.

Are you running the "X-Gauge" program with the SGII? Mine is about a year old without the CPM option. I haven't seen 9999 unless I shut down the engine on coast.
I may turn it in under warranty. Some pixels are going out on the bottom-right, first number displayed (on mine it's MPG, so a bit frustrating). I'd see about adding additional parameters if it's worth it.
Yeah I feel the exact same feeling as you mention. Then at 1250 the TC disengages and raises the RPM a bit to fire things back up.
By the way, I've been having a surge issue over the last several months. At steady cruise, I can feel something like a miniature A/C compressor kicking-in -- then ~30 seconds later, whatever it is disengages. (A/C is confirmed off) I have an ancient battery (~6-years old) and I'm wondering if it's the alternator asking for more demand to charge the batt. It could be the fan kicking-on. No changes in voltage, but a slight drop in FE is noted. Can't figure it
