    It means that setting in the HDV is in the wrong format.

    It limits how high off the ground the wing will continue to work. So if the car flips and does some of those Moon Launch physics, the wing stops exerting force at XX.XX distance from the ground.. (usually a relatively tiny number)

    It sets a cap for front wing height for downforce calculations. You won't want to set it to 0.0, probably something like 0.3 would be safe. Otherwise you've got constant maximum ground effect.
