Show emergency alerts (EAS)

This allows you to select the alert priority level of the information

disseminated by the cable operator. The standard SCTE18 defines

an Emergency Alert signalling method for use by cable TV

systems to signal emergencies to digital devices such as digital

set-top boxes, digital TVs and digital VCRs.

The Emergency alert signalling scheme defined in the standard

allows a cable operator to disseminate emergency alert

information related to state and local-level emergencies and

warnings in a cost-effective and efficient way, while minimizing

disruption of programming.

An Emergency alert message will have one of the following

priorities:

Low, Medium, High or Maximum.

The Emergency alert message with priority

High or Maximum

will always be presented.

Low or Medium will be present or

ignored depending on the setting you select.

Important:

When the TV clock is undefined (See Setup menu, Clock,

p. 19), the Emergency Alerts will be ignored.

The Emergency Alert message display will contain following

information:

- The Emergency Alert text

- The start time + date

- The end time + date.

Select

Show Emergency Alerts in the Menu preferences menu.

Press the cursor right key and select one of the Emergency alerts

options:

- Always: You always want available Emergency alert messages to

be displayed;

- Skip low priority: You want low level messages to be ignored;

- Skip low/medium priority: You only want the high priority

message to be displayed.
