[Motorola] MDC-1200 and CDM1250 radio question?

[Eric Lemmon]

Jay,

Yes, the MDC-1200 standard only allows for a 4-digit unit ID number, but
that is in hexadecimal.  You can use the hexadecimal equivalent of a
six-digit decimal number, and let the data translator convert it for you.
If that is too much trouble, just use the last four digits of the vehicle
numbers.

Can anyone help?
 
It looks like the CDM1250 radio software only allows a 4-digit number
for MDC-1200 ID or Call Alert.
 
The problem is, I need to put a five- or six-digit number in each
individual radio and then display that same number 
in Cimarron Technologies ANI equipment.  My radio ID numbers need to
match the fleet vehicle numbers.
 
Thanks
