XI. USING THE ALERT FUNCTION

When a Test or Demo Alert Occurs

The NWS sends out weekly test signals that you can use
to confirm that your WX-80 weather monitor is working
properly. To find out the specific test schedule in your
area, contact your local NOAA or NWS office. Those
offices are usually listed in the telephone book under
"US Government, Department of Commerce".
When the weather monitor's alert function is turned
on and the monitor receives a test broadcast for a FIPS
code you programmed into its memory, it responds in
one of these ways:
NWS Alert Type
Demo Message
(sent at random times)
Required Weekly
SAME Test
Required Monthly
SAME Test

Undefined Weather Descriptions

The NWS might occasionally broadcast several types
of weather information intended for commercial or
other non-private use. This information could include,
for example, messages intended for automated weather
services (such as those used by radio or TV stations).
