NWR and the Emergency Alert System (EAS) use the same digital protocols, and
NWR is the primary means for NWS alerts to activate the EAS. The Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) amended the EAS rules in 2002 and adopted
numerous codes. NWS introduced the new codes on June 30, 2004. Log onto

(NWR-SAME) Codes if your receiver is equipped with Digital SAME Technology.
USING THE DETACHABLE HAND-CRANK LED FLASHLIGHT
The VEC1029POB also comes with a detachable Hand-Crank LED Flashlight.
Features include:
• 3 long-life, ultra bright beam LED lights
• Powered by a flip-up, dynamo hand crank (no need to buy batteries)
Charge the LED Flashlight by opening (flipping up) the dynamo hand-crank’s handle
(located on the underside of the flashlight) and hand cranking in a clockwise direction
at a rate of one to two rotations per second (for optimal charging).
Approximately one minute of hand cranking will yield up to 30 minutes of runtime at
the single LED setting or up to 10 minutes of runtime at the 3-LED setting.
The Flashlight’s ON/OFF function and LED settings are controlled by the LED Selection
pushbutton on the top of the Flashlight as follows:
• Depress the LED Selection Pushbutton for the single LED setting (one LED will light).
• Depress the LED Selection Pushbutton a second time for the 3-LED setting.
• Depress the LED Selection Pushbutton a third time to switch the LED Flashlight OFF.
