Duration Extension Time (seconds)
This field allows extra time to be added to the alert duration programmed into the
Cable Alert Message
alert_time_remaining
field. The maximum time allowed for this
field is 120 seconds. This can be used to guarantee a minimum amount of time for
short Weekly Test alerts. The formula for the Alert Duration is:
Alert Duration == Audio
Du Extension Time (max total is 120 seconds)
.
All FIPS codes trigger
If enabled, all alert FIPS codes will trigger the DVS644/SCTE18 client interface. In the
above screen shot this option is disabled. Set the check box to enable/disable FIPS
code filtered trigger control. If disabled, the alert FIPS codes are filtered for at least
one specific match as a way to control whether or not DVS644/SCTE18 is triggered.
Alerts for specific FIPS areas can be filtered as a way to control whether or not DVS644/
SCTE18 is triggered. If All FIPS is disabled, select FIPS Groups from the pull-down menu.
If any of these FIPS codes are included in the incoming active forwarded/originated
alert, the alert will be sent using the DVS-644/SCTE18 client. With careful use of this
feature, and with multiple clients, one EAS device can serve many different cable re
-
gions at the same time.
All EAS codes trigger
If enabled, all EAS codes will trigger the DVS644/SCTE18 client interface. In the above
screen shot this option is disabled. Set the check box to enable/disable EAS code
filtered trigger control. If disabled, then the alert EAS code is filtered for a specific
match as a way to control whether or not DVS644/SCTE18 is triggered. If All EAS is
disabled, select EAS Group from the pull-down menu. If the EAS codes of an active
forwarded/originated alert matches any included in the EAS Group, the alert will
be sent using the DVS-644/SCTE18 client. With careful use of this feature, and with
multiple clients, one EAS device can serve many different cable regions at the same
time.

to save the configuration.
Stream MPEG
If Streaming MPEG hardware/software is available on the EAS device, a sub-tab will
display under
Setup > Net Alerts
that allows configuration of up to two client targets.
As in the other Net Alert pages, use the Alert Forwarding and/or the Encoder Alert
stream check boxes to enable/disable the use of streaming MPEG clients when alerts
are forwarded and/or originated.
