Narrative:
After departing runway 29, departure control gave clearance to intercept the cae 314 degree radial and contact ZTL. When I selected the route in the FMS, the FMS dumped the route. The captain tried to call ZTL and was unable to contact and went back to approach. He was also trying to reprogram the FMS. I inquired approach about the clearance and he read back a clt radial. Cae departure then gave us another atl frequency and we made contact. We requested direct unarm and they gave us direct adena intersection and the unarm arrival on course. Due to the delay with the FMS and the ZTL frequency, we did not immediately intercept the cae 314 degree radial. The flight path was runway heading. I am not aware of any aircraft conflicts.

Title: AN FK100 FLC EXPERIENCES A HDG TRACK DEV AFTER THEY HAVE AN FMS DUMP THE RTE INFO NW OF CAE, SC.
Narrative: AFTER DEPARTING RWY 29, DEP CTL GAVE CLRNC TO INTERCEPT THE CAE 314 DEG RADIAL AND CONTACT ZTL. WHEN I SELECTED THE RTE IN THE FMS, THE FMS DUMPED THE RTE. THE CAPT TRIED TO CALL ZTL AND WAS UNABLE TO CONTACT AND WENT BACK TO APCH. HE WAS ALSO TRYING TO REPROGRAM THE FMS. I INQUIRED APCH ABOUT THE CLRNC AND HE READ BACK A CLT RADIAL. CAE DEP THEN GAVE US ANOTHER ATL FREQ AND WE MADE CONTACT. WE REQUESTED DIRECT UNARM AND THEY GAVE US DIRECT ADENA INTXN AND THE UNARM ARR ON COURSE. DUE TO THE DELAY WITH THE FMS AND THE ZTL FREQ, WE DID NOT IMMEDIATELY INTERCEPT THE CAE 314 DEG RADIAL. THE FLT PATH WAS RWY HDG. I AM NOT AWARE OF ANY ACFT CONFLICTS.
