I did it into the 878 and 578 with same results. ?In the end i had to upgrade my 578 FW & CPS to the latest as it didn’t want to put it back into my radio but that was after the import error ?

I did go through the CPS file and fix most of the scan and zone lists so if you want that version let me know.?

I'm going to guess if you take my 'fixed' cps, export to dcf and then re-import to CPS you'll get the same errors

Import to the CPS from Contact Manager is when I noticed.

It should be easy to spot but the first place I noticed is in the zones 78, 83, 85, 86, 87 94 And associated scan list

But in any of the analog zones nearby like NC I-77 you will see DMR channels as they start with letters

Re: Scan list corruption

 

开云体育

It appears it’s an importing error.?
I’ve spent the last hour going through both my 878 & 578 and it is actually both zone and scan lists that are being corrupted.?
There is no pattern I can see. Some are fine and some are not. It does appear the more channels the original zone has the less likely it is to corrupt.?

I’ve used contact manager for probably close to 10 years. ?I’m not sure when this problem started as zone zones I don’t use regularly, only when tracking, and that’s when I noticed errors in the past. I’ve spent the past 2+ weeks doing a major cleanup so these errors really stood out this time. ?

Re: Scan list corruption

As a "test" I imported the same codeplug from Contact Manager into my existing 578 CPS (ver. 1.21) and it ALSO corrupted the zone lists.? I discovered its the zone that is getting corrupted (I did the 878 2 days ago)??

Here's a sample - this is a NC DMR zone so all the channels should start NC - there doesn't seem to be a pattern for what is imported randomly.


Scan list corruption

 
Edited

UPDATED/CORRECTED? I completely rebuilt my codeplug (in Contact Manager) as I had noticed that ZONE lists were corrupted with channels being in them that were not supposed to.
I imported into the 878 CPS and noticed, when I went to add 2 new channels, that the list was again corrupted.
I checked the Contact Manager file and it was correct so this occurs during import.
A number of the scan lists in the CPS are corrupted. The easiest ones to spot are an analog scan list that has DMR channels in because of the naming conventions I use:? DMR start with 2-letter state and 2-letters for the location. Analog list the frequency.
?
This has been?an issue for some time.? ie its been occurring?for a year or more just never did an entire cleanup.
I checking the firmware and CPS I noticed that I am not current so I'll try this first but as I mentioned this has been a problem for a while so wondered if any others have experienced.
?
As a disclaimer of sorts I have around 3700 channels as the codeplug is good for about 10 states.
?
CPS 3.02
878UVii? per the settings but 878UVii Plus on the back (which is what I bought it as)
Firmware?3.01

Is Contact Manager able to export data in a form that can be read by Radioddity programming software?

Re: N?GSG DMR Contact Manager 2.80 Release

 

Hello Barry,

Contact Manager will continue to be compatible with AnyTone products as long as they support the DCF format, which is invariant regardless of format changes due to individual model updates.

The DCF idea originated with AnyTone and is a good one, however, everyone must remember that DCF files cannot track setting changes unique to specific radio models that were not originally defined in the DCF standard.

I recommend that to update digital contacts on any AnyTone model, use the updated CSV Export functionality provided in the Contact Manager DMR Online Database Searcher tool. This is a quick and very easy to accomplish this task without having to perform any codeplug edits.

Best regards,
Tom N0GSG

Thank you for the heads up on Contact Manager V2.8.? This is good news.

Today I was alerted on a different forum that Anytone released a new firmware update on 23 JAN 25 for the Anytone D168UV (firmware v1.05) and D878UV (v3.06 firmware). ? The posting also states that Anytone has revised the address location of the memories starting with v3.05 on the Anytone D878UV.? The posting notes that the current version of RT Systems software is not compatible with D878UV v3.05 or later. ?

Lastly, I took a look at the Anytone website??and it appears that AnyTone has also released a firmware update for the D878UV+ on the same date as well.

Consequently, any thoughts on whether Contact Manager v2.80 is compatible with the these new firmware versions? ?

We have just released N?GSG DMR Contact Manager version 2.80. N0GSG DMR Contact Manager is the "goto" software for working with codeplug data in many different makes of DMR radios, including Alinco, Tera, BTECH, Connect Systems, Tytera, AnyTone, and others. It allows you to freely edit information in all supported codeplugs, and also allows you to migrate data freely between any supported radio types using copy and paste commands for individual elements (such as contacts, channels, or zones), or Structural Import for seamlessly migrating complete codeplug structures.
?
The following enhancements are included in Version 2.80:
?
  • The program can now create Digital Contact CSVs for all AnyTone models. You can now update digital contacts in any AnyTone model by utilizing the DMR Online Database Searcher and clicking the "Export as CSV..." button. Contact Manager will nearly instantly compile your CSV according to the search parameters you've chosen, and in minutes you can import this CSV into the AnyTone CPS and directly port it to your radio.
  • You can now configure DMR Contact Manager as the default application for opening codeplugs with the Associate DMR Files command. Once you select this, your codeplug files will appear with distinctive icons to make it easier for your to find them - - and they will open for you simply by double-clicking them.
    The software now fully supports the Alinco DJ-MD40T.
  • Support for all previous models, including the newer Connect Systems CS800D (Types I, II, and III), CS750 (Type I), TYT MD-2017 and MD-9600 dual band DMR radios, is included. If you've got one of these radios, use Contact Manager to build the perfect codeplug - - use Contact Manager's Structural Import feature to splice together information from your existing codeplug(s) and be on the air in minutes. Or, if you've got a new radio, migrate the codeplugs from legacy models to your new radio.
  • We fixed a minor bug in the DMR database import function so that missing fields in DMR user records are now properly handled. This bug intermittently caused problems during manipulation of Digital Contact lists.
The for Contact Manager is updated and explains how to use the new features. (AnyTone, Alinco DJ-MD5 and BTECH DMR-6X2 users, please read the documentation carefully to understand how to create DCF files from the CPS for editing these codeplugs within Contact Manager.)

Re: N?GSG DMR Contact Manager 2.80 Release

Tom:

Thank you for the heads up on Contact Manager V2.8. ?This is good news.

Today I was alerted on a different forum that Anytone released a new firmware update on 23 JAN 25 for the Anytone D168UV (firmware v1.05) and D878UV (v3.06 firmware). ? The posting also states that Anytone has revised the address location of the memories starting with v3.05 on the Anytone D878UV. ?The posting notes that the current version of RT Systems software is not compatible with D878UV v3.05 or later. ?

Lastly, I took a look at the Anytone website??and it appears that AnyTone has also released a firmware update for the D878UV+ on the same date as well.

Consequently, any thoughts on whether Contact Manager v2.80 is compatible with the these new firmware versions? ?


Thanks,

AnyTone AT-D168UV CPS Bug - DCF Issue

 

All,
?
FYI - I've entered a ticket with AnyTone to correct the CPS (1.04) for this model. It writes defective DCF files and fails to read properly-formatted DCFs. Once this issue is corrected, Contact Manager will automatically support this new model.

Re: Anytone 868 DCF file

 

Mark - Be sure to update to the latest AnyTone CPS. AnyTone struggled with getting DCF files right on earlier CPS versions. You will probably need to update your radio's firmware at the same time.
