About the Emergency Alert System (EAS)

In the case of a national emergency, natural disaster, or other emergency situation, an EAS message broadcasts. When this unit receives an EAS message, if the level of emergency is comparatively low, an alert text message displays on screen. If the level of emergency is high, the receiver is forced-tuned to a details channel.

Alert text messages display, and forced tuning occurs, even during paid programming. Even when forced tuning is active, the user can still change the channel.

If the unit is forced-tuned to a channel that has been blocked by Parental Control, the Parental Control setting is given priority, and the EAS message is not broadcast.

EAS messages may be broadcast not only through digital cable, but also through analog cable or over-the-air analog transmission.
