RS Pro-164 has a bug in it's firmware.
I believe it is the same in the Pro-164 since they use the same firmware.
And right now I can only duplicate it with Type I fleet maps.
First, what I program with Win97 is correct, both in uploading and downloading form the scanner. The software could be converting the table correctly when importing.
Here's the problem:
I set up a Block with a S-2 size code, and anything above 206-01, it will not display or track with the proper ID number.
Those ID numbers that are programmed in the scanner or displayed as it is tracking are changed by the scanner. So far I see it affecting Block 2 & Block 5 and only above a certain fleet identification.
Here's how the scanner changes them. This is with an S-2 size code, obviously another size code changes them to different numbers, but they are still wrong.
208-01 becomes 200-01,
211-02 becomes 203-02,
212-01 becomes 204-0,
213-01 becomes 205-01,
214-01 becomes 206-01.
There is a simple work around for it if you follow a Type I system.
Simply program the correct ID in the Alpha spot and that is what show up.
But it needs to be fixed as I never know if I'm seeing the correct talk group anymore. And I'm still trying to figure out some Type I systems,and this makes it that much harder.
