Digital Alert Systems: DASDEC User Manual
The embedded EAS protocol field for the Station ID can be programmed differently for each station as
well. This makes the actual EAS alert header FSK audio (
which embeds the Station ID ) truly represent
the station of alert origin.
Station configuration options are performed on the
Setup > Encoder > General and Setup > Decoder
> Forwarding pages.
The screen shot demonstrates the different
Send EAS Alert buttons provided for station support.
Buttons are offered for all running the alert on each station in sequence, for running on individual
stations, and for running the alert once to all stations at the same time using the Base station
configuration. As in non-multistation mode, when any of the
Send EAS Alert buttons are pressed, the
actual send must be confirmed on the confirmation review page.
Another difference in the Multistation mode version of the
Encoder > Send Alert > General Alerts
page is the alert text translation display. The standard translation for the alert to each station is shown.
Since each station can independently set the Station ID, the Origination code, and Origination code
custom translation text, the translation text varies per station. The display shows exactly the text that is
sent per station to video character generators.
All other interface components of the Send Alert page are the same as in the non-multistation mode.
Keep in mind that the settings on this page apply to the alert
(or alerts if sent to each station
sequentially ) at the time the Send EAS Alert button is pressed.
Finally, the Alert Origination Action table is expanded in Multistation mode to show the actions for each
configured station. This table presents a quick view of the station by station configuration.
If all of the stations are disabled ( from the Setup > Encoder > General and Setup > Decoder >
Forwarding pages ) the alert origination reverts to using the Base configuration, just like a DASDEC II
that does not have Multistation operation licensed.
6.1.2 One-Button EAS
The DASDEC II supports configuration of a static set of Required Weekly test parameters on the Setup >
Encoder > Required Tests page. Once configured, the Encoder > Send Alert > One-Button Alert page
presents a single button for issuing the weekly test alert. This feature simplifies sending a weekly test alert to a
single action.
