Set FIPS locations
An EAS alert must be issued for specific locations. Until FIPS location codes
are entered, the One-Net will not present a
Send Alert? Display. Instead, a
message **Need to Add FIPS Codes** will display in place of selected FIPS
codes. Also, a message " Alert NOT Ready to Send: Specify FIPS " is
displayed at the lower right on the page.
•
To set the FIPS location(s) for the alert code, select from the list presented
in the box under
Available FIPS Locations . The codes shown are the
ones that were added on the Setup >Encoder > General screen.
•
If the list needs to be corrected, use the link Available FIPS Locations to
return to the Setup > Encoder > General screen. Configure Available
Encoder FIPS Locations for Encoder as needed. See section 5.9.1. Then
return to the Encoder >Send EAS >General page to continue
constructing the alert.
•
For each location, Select one or more FIPS, and click Add Selected FIPS .
Up to 31 FIPS location codes may be selected using the provided FIPS
selection table.
•
As you build the list of current FIPS locations for the alert, these locations
display on the right. The sub-region of the FIPS location can be edited for
every chosen location. If a different sub-region is desired, select one of
the choices presented in the pull-down menu displayed to the left of the
FIPS code.
•
If a FIPS location needs to be removed from the list for the alert, click the
Remove option that is presented with every chosen FIPS entry.
•
After you select the FIPS location(s), the "Alert NOT Ready..." message
changes to a
Send Alert? Button. The alert can be sent immediately if no
audio message is needed. However, often the alert should have Pre-Alert
Audio Announcement or an Audio File.
•
Pushing the Reset button will restart the entire process.
Select Alert Audio (Optional)
Use this pull-down menu to select a prerecorded audio file to play during the
alert. This option is not presented for Required Weekly Test (RWT). Audio
files can be added to this list in two ways. WAV files can be uploaded using
the Upload interface described below. Or, audio files can be directly recorded
into the One-Net by using button described below. When an audio file is
selected, its duration will appear, along with a link to play the file on the host
browser, as well as two buttons. The
Preview Selected button will play the
file over the One-Net internal speaker. The Delete Selected button will allow
file deletion from the audio list.
