EMERGENCY ALERT SYSTEM (EAS) 

The EAS was formed in 1994 by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in order to replace the Emergency 
Broadcast System. These systems were designed to alert the public about emergency situations. These situations 
may include, but are not limited to: weather conditions, state, national, and local emergencies, and national security. 

When the EAS is activated: 

Depending on the severity of the warning the alert will act in one of two ways:

broadcast—to return to your previously viewed channel, Press BACK on your remote 

2) 

A message will be placed on your screen describing the situation or direct you to another channel to view 
information on the situation
