Went to program up our first batch of Minitor V pagers and ran into a problem. We use all Motorola Group 6 tones so I selected Motorola in the system type. When I went to the F1 tab I selected R-97 as the option then went to the A tone box and got the tone selection menu with no problem.
When I went to do the same for the B tone I found a blank space where group 6 tone 4 (1251.4) should be. Tryed all other code options and on all of them there is a blank space where tone 4 should be.
I downloaded version 1.2.2 from MOL and it is the same (was on 1.2.1)
The only way I can put 1251.4 in is to select USER as the system type and it gets rounded up 2 hz.
Just for kicks I tryed the same thing on the Windows version of Minitor IV and found the same thing. All my Minitor IV where previously programed with the DOS programmer and I do not remember having any problems.
Geez, I caned all the Plectron tones years ago and went to Motorola tones, who would have thought that their software would not accept their tones??
Any ideas, I know I can leave it as USER and the rounding will not effect how the pager works but I would realy like to be able to select Motorola and use the tone selection check box the way it was intended.
Any more news on the Charger Amp SRN, I hate to put these things out knowing there are problems brewing.

Minitor V problem with group 6 tones
Cause Motorola said so that's why
Re: Minitor V problem with group 6 tones
we have the same issue here. Our second tone is 1251.4. We attempted to program the new 5's with that tone, but unless we use User as a tone choice, that tone isn't on the list of acceptable tones.
