The Server Network Hostname is used to identify the EAS device across a computer network. It must not contain spaces, underscores or
punctuation (delimiting dots are okay).

The Server Name is the name the EAS device presents through the web interface, is included in EAS logs/reports, and is most useful when multiple EAS
devices are located in the same facility or when centrally managed. Do not confuse the Server Name with the Server Network Hostname found below. A
default Server Name is provided and can be changed at
Setup > Server > Main License
. This field is limited to 70 characters. The Serial ID is found on
the rear of the device in the upper-right corner.
Review your state's Emergency Alert System Plan for monitoring assignments. Typical assignments include a Primary Entry Point (PEP) for national
alerts, a Local Primary (LP-1) for state, regional, and local alerts, and NOAA for local weather alerts. Enter this information into the web interface at
Setup > Audio > Radio Tuners
.

The Label is an internal identifier for the source of the incoming/decoded EAS messages. The call letters of the
monitored station or an audio source description are normally used in this field. Those are entered at
Setup > Audio > Decoder Audio.
