Make sure you are using -uhm with SARndbox to enable elevation color mapping.
You can also use SARndbox -h to see which file the sandbox will use for colors. Find “Default elevation color map file name” in the help output and verify the file shown on that line is located at the given path and that the file is readable (i.e. proper permisisons).
If the contour lines seem in the wrong places on the sand, then calibrate the sandbox, again, with CalibrateProjector.
