Encoder
EAS alert encoding, called origination, is when the digital codes and alert audio tones and
message defined by the EAS protocol, are assembled and played over a broadcast medium
for which EAS decoders might be listening. The One-Net
SE
makes this task very easy. Every
action needed to encode and send EAS is available on a single page of the One-Net
SE
Web
Interface.
There are two sub-pages on the Setup Encoder screen:
General Required Tests
To run EAS encoding, a One-Net
SE
must be configured with a valid Encoder license key.
This is entered on the Setup > Server page. Without a valid license key, the One-Net
SE
will
not show a Setup Encoder page nor the main Encoder menu tab. See section 5.1 Setup
Server. There are some configuration tasks that need to be done on the Setup > Encoder
pages before you use the One-Net
SE
encoder.
4.9.1 Setup Encoder > General
The General sub-page is used to set the EAS Origination code, the EAS station ID, and
commonly used alert types and FIPS locations. This page allows configuration of some
basic items needed to use the EAS encoder.
NOTE: Unlike most configuration pages, changes made to this page
are effective immediately and do not require clicking an Accept
