cdm1250 programming invalid fields

Post by jmr3865 »

Hello, I am having an issue programming my cdm1250 because I have 2 invalid fields. They are rdkrecrefindex_64024_64025 and 64019_64020. They are not shown in any window. When I double click them, it says that the field cannot be found. Please help!

I'd re-read the radio, and then attempt to program without changes to see if the problem fields are inherent.

I read the radio and programed it before I started.

I've had this problem a few times. What I've been able to figure is that it is an error within an option you've disabled.

For example, I had a radio setup like this: Channel 1 used MDC System 1, Channel 2 used MDC System 2, Channel 3 used MDC System 3. When I went in to "blank" the codeplug, I deleted the MDC systems then deleted the channels. This caused the error you're seeing, and there's no way to fix it because the reference to the MDC system (the conventionl channel in this case) has already been deleted.

What I do now (and have never had the problem since) is remove all references to anything else BEFORE deleting the "anything else" first. Such things are MDC systems, MDC Call IDs, DTMF systems, scan list entries, etc...

So how do I fix it without redoing to whole codeplug?

Ok, rewrote the whole thing saving after every step. Took about 4 tries but got it done. Thanks for the help!
