Narrative:

Upon receiving clearance from dallas clearance; the crew loaded the SID for the JPOOL6 departure from dal in the collins FMS. The clearance given was 'cleared to [destination] via JPOOL6 act as filed; climb 4000 expect 6000; departure freq 124.3 [and a squawk]'. The flight crew briefed the SID per the jeppesen chart prior to takeoff from 31R. Dallas love tower...cleared [us] for takeoff RW31R' without any additional heading or instruction. Upon takeoff climb; the autopilot was selected above 700ft AGL and began a left turn to intercept a course to TTT VOR. Upon noticing the error; the captain disconnected the autopilot simultaneously while being queried by departure control about the clearance. Departure then issued a heading of 150 degrees which was complied with immediately. Upon further examination on the ground [at our destination]; the FMS is not correctly loading the JPOOL6 departure and commanded an erroneous course to the autopilot and flight director upon selection.
