ABOUT THE NATIONAL WEATHER RADIO SYSTEM

The National Weather Service (NWS) is an agency within the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that operates a nationwide network of radio stations known as the NOAA Weather Radio (NWR).

The NWR radio system broadcasts warning information for all types of hazards, both natural and technological.

Working in conjunction with the Emergency Alert System

(EAS), NWR is an all-in-one hazards radio network and is considered to be the single source of all comprehensive weather and emergency information.

A nationwide network, the NWR consists of more than

900 stations in 50 states, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin

Islands and US Pacific Territories. Broadcasts are designed to meet local needs. Routine programming is repeated every few minutes and consists of local forecast, regional conditions and marine forecasts.

Additional information, including river stages and climatic data, is also provided. During emergencies, these routine broadcasts are interrupted to report specific warnings.

NOAA ALERT MESSAGES

When the NWR airs urgent warnings, a digital code known as Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME) is included as part of the message. This coding system contains specific information including the localized geographical area affected and the expiration time of the message. The WR606 retrieves and interprets SAME code messages and alerts the user. When SAME codes for a specific region have been entered into the unit, the unit alerts the user to relevant warning information for the specified region. Once alerted, a voice broadcast can be heard.

FIND LOCAL CHANNELS AND SAME CODES

The codes are subject to change. Therefore, to ensure successful operation you must obtain the most appropriate, up-to-date NWR radio channels and SAME codes for a specific county or region, from the contact details listed below.

To contact the NWS by telephone:

1. Phone 1-888-NWR-SAME (1-888-697-7263).

2. Follow prompts through a simple voice menu.

To obtain NWS radio channels and SAME codes on the internet:

1. Locate www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/indexnw.htm

2. Click the State for which information is needed.

For example, clicking on “Montana” will give a list of information relevant to the State of Montana including the names of counties, SAME codes, NWR transmitter locations, the frequency of the transmitter, the strength of the signal in WATTS, and any remarks as applicable.

The unit labels each frequency as a channel (1-7 or

Auto). Once the radio frequency for a region has been selected the unit will receive voice and code information from that station.

The channel number in use can be viewed on the top left-hand corner of the LCD.

SET THE RADIO CHANNEL

To change the radio channel, navigate to “Set Channel” setting mode and select the desired Channel, as shown in the Change Settings section.

SET THE LOCATION

You need to set the location so that you can receive weather and environmental information for an area that is relevant to you.

You can choose the location by either the state and county name, or FIPS code. Up to 9 locations (1-9) can be stored.

NOTE If you do not set a location, the unit will use the default setting “CO:All” for all counties.

To set the location:

1. Navigate to “Set Location” setting mode as shown in the Change Settings section.

2. Select where you want to store the location e.g.

C1.

3. Select the 6-digit number e.g. “000000”. (“----“ means the location is disabled.)

4. Select “Name” or “FIPS”.

• If you select “Name” you can select first the State and then the County of your chosen location, then press EXIT. (If you wish to receive State-wide NOAA messages, press EXIT once you have selected the

State.)

• If you select “FIPS” you need to enter the 6-digit

SAME code of your chosen location and then press

EXIT (see Find Local Channels and SAME Codes section for how to obtain a SAME code).

NOTE If at step 2 you select “C0:All” you will receive all warnings within the unit’s reception range. This may result in giving you information for regions that are not relevant. The regions can be as large as 5,000 square miles (13 sq km). If you select “CO:----” you will disable the ALL option and will only receive warnings from specified local areas.

NOTE Once the location name is selected, the corresponding FIPS code will be set into the memory.You cannot convert the code back to the location name.(FIPS is the Federal Information Processing System number assigned to each State, or open waters in or around the

US. The SAME code comprises of numbers generated by the FIPS system.)

ACTIVATE / DEACTIVATE LOCATION

You can activate / deactivate 1, some, or all of your stored locations.

When a location is activated, the 6-digit SAME code can be viewed in your stored locations display.

When a location is deactivated, “----” can be viewed in your stored locations display.

To switch between activated or deactivated location status:

1. Navigate to “Set Location” setting mode as shown in the Change Settings section.

2. Select a stored location e.g. C4 and press MENU.

Then when “000000” or “----” is blinking, press or to activate or deactivate it and press EXIT to confirm the setting.

SAME CODE – WHAT EACH DIGIT MEANS

A SAME code is broken into 3 sets of numbers.The example below is the code for the northeast sub-section of Cochise County.

3 04 003

Code for Cochise County

Code for Arizona

Code for northeast sub-section of

Cochise County

State-county code:

The 3 digits on the right are for state county coding. Each county within a state has an independent 3-digit code.

NOTE To receive all of the alerts for a given state, insert

000 into the county section.

State code:

Moving towards the left, the next 2 digits are for state coding. Each of the 50 U.S. States has their own 2digit code.

County sub-section code:

The last digit on the left is for county sub-section coding. A county may be subdivided into nine sub-sections; each number between (1-9) represents a specific county sub-section.

NOTE If the county sub-section code is stated as 0, then that county is not sub-divided and all alerts for that county will be received. To receive all of the alerts for a given county, insert 0 into the county sub-section.

A county can be subdivided as follows:

1 Northwest

RECEIVING NOAA ALERT MESSAGES

To receive NOAA alert message, press NOAA to set the unit to one of the following options:

ON [ ]: The unit is ON and voice messages can be heard continuously.

Standby [ ]: The unit is in Standby and will switch to ON when NOAA alert message is received.

Mute [ ]: The unit is in Standby with the sound turned OFF. NOAA alert messages can be viewed but not heard. Switch the unit ON to hear messages.

OFF: The unit is turned OFF and will not respond to

NOAA alert messages.

Turning the unit off by setting it to Standby, Mute or OFF will help to save power.

RECEPTION TEST

The fact that you can get clear voice reception does not guarantee that an emergency alert will trigger your unit’s alert tone. To test actual reception, your unit must receive a test or emergency alert signal broadcast. The

National Weather Service (NWS) broadcasts a test alert every week on Wednesday between 11AM and 12PM

(noon). To find out the specific test schedule in your area, contact your local National Oceanic and Atmospheric

Administration (NOAA) or National Weather Service

(NWR) office. These offices are usually listed in the telephone book under “US Government”.

REMEMBER For your system to be effective, you must place the unit in a location where it can receive an emergency alert signal, you can hear its siren, and see its flashing indicator lights.

RECEPTION PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS

Forests, deserts, and hills / mountains tend to greatly reduce reception. Reception in cities may be reduced due to steel and concrete, while higher elevations will enhance the signal. Reception can vary from room to room. Moving even a few feet can enhance signal reception.

RECOMMENDATION Place your weather station near a window, away from other electronic equipment, and on an upper level of your house.

INTERPRETING NOAA ALERT MESSAGES

This product is equipped to receive all required NOAA and Emergency Alert System (EAS) events. When an

EAS event is sent by the NWS, any 1 of the following

NOAA alert messages will scroll across your weather station display: “WARNING”, “WATCH”, or “ADVISORY”.

The unit can store up to 8 NOAA alert messages.

Additionally, to help you check that your unit is set-up and working properly, your local NOAA will release a

Test NOAA message every Wednesday between 10am and noon, local time. To receive the Test message make sure that your unit is set to NOAA ON, NOAA Standby or NOAA Mute mode, that a Channel has been selected and a SAME code programmed in. If you have any questions regarding alarm tests or to verify if a test was

5/27/08 3:02:35 PM

conducted, contact the programming office of your local

NOAA Weather Radio station.

To view NOAA alert messages, press MSG.
