Help with driving while disqualified charge

On feb 22 2008, I received my D class license with Z endorsement back with the "I" Ignition interlock condition. While waiting for my appointment with Guardian Interlock Systems to have the unit installed, I was pulled over on Feb 27 for speeding (Dumb). The officer gave me 2 summons to appear in court. One was for the speeding, One was for the interlock conditon.
On March 11th I went to court and pled guilty to the speeding. Then they told me I was free to go. I told them there was another matter and they said they had nothing, I was free to go.
6 weeks later 2 officers show up in the middle of the night and serve me with a charge under the criminal code for Driving while disqualified and gave me a date to appear for fingerprints.
I took the Back On Track Program and it and every other piece of info I have found states that the driving without interlock is a Highway Traffic Act charge and is a $200-$1000 for non commercial vehicle, fine plus six months added on to my condition.
The officers stated that this is the first time they had delt with this in our small town and they had to do their homework. This is what they came up with.
How can I be disqualified when I in fact at the time of the offence and currently hold a valid license of a higher class then the officer who nailed me probably has?
I want to go to court and plead not guilty to this charge because I was not disqualified, I was violating a condition on my license. Same as not wearing glasses with the X condition on your license isn't it?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
