1. Is it a variable or switch type pedal?
2. Does it use a stereo or mono jack?

I'm guessing it is a switch type pedal with a mono jack.
1. Set the HH pedal switch (right switch on the front panel) to "Low Impedance" position (switch in the Up position).
2. Leave all HH Pedal settings at defaults
3. Set AutoLevels to Yes
4. Set LowLevel to as high value as it will allow you to. What value did it allow to set it to?
5. Set HighLevel to as low value as it will allow you to. What value did it allow to set it to?
6. Press the pedal a few times.
7. Look at the LowLevel setting again. What do you see there?
8. Look at the HighLevel setting again. What do you see there?

The low value in high level was 536 before i push the pedal and the high value in low level was 221.
When i push the pedal hi level was 184 and low level was 183
P.D:I think the cable is stereo...maybe i will try a mono one
Mono one also do nothing...

This is strange. With AutoLevels set to Yes, HighLevel can only go up from initially set value. In your case it should have not gone from 536 to 184.

Please confirm it is a switch type pedal and I'll then do some testing.

Please update to the latest firmware version, 20091007, and then:
1. Set AutoLevels to No
2. Set LowLevel to 110
3. Set HighLevel to 111
4. Set AutoLevels to Yes
5. Press the pedal a few times. What values do you have now in LowLevel and HighLevel?
