[. . . ] To custom program your radio for alerts in your area only, see the SAME programming instructions on page 11-12. GB 10 SAME Programming NOAA transmits coded weather and civil emergency alerts using Specific Area Message Encoding (S. A. M. E. SAME enables you to customize your CL-100 to receive messages relevant to your area, therefore reducing unwanted alerts. SAME is activated by programming a 6 digit code ­ called a FIPS code ­ into your radio. The CL-100 is capable of being programmed with up to 25 different FIPS location codes. To program the radio with the FIPS code for your area, follow the steps below. Press the MENU button and press the TUNE DOWN to scroll down to the County Code, and press the SELECT button to enter the menu. Choose Single if you want to receive only alerts sent to one county (or FIPS code). Choose Multiple if you want to receive alerts from more than one county that you have programmed. Choose All to receive all alerts your station sends regardless of the FIPS codes. Select New Code and enter a six digit sequence to set up the FIPS code. Repeat this sequence until you have set all six digits as desired, and press the SELECT button to save the code and exit to Single County menu. More than one set of FIPS codes can be stored under Single County mode, but only one set of code can work at a time. Press the TUNE UP/DOWN to highlight the stored code, and press SELECT button to overwrite an existing code. When a code is highlighted, press VOL UP/DOWN button to enable/disable the code. Under Multiple County mode, repeat the same instruction as above to set up, edit or enable / disable your FIPS codes. Note: If no code is enabled before leaving, the default County Code mode is All. GB 12 Setting up RBDS CT Radio Broadcast Data System, or RBDS, is a communications protocol standard for embedding small amounts of digital information in conventional FM radio broadcasts. The RBDS system standardizes several types of information transmitted, including time, station identification and program information. CT (Clock Time) is normally contained in the RBDS data, and you can set the date, weekday and time on a digital watch manually by the RBDS transmitted to your Sangean CL-100 following below instructions: Setting CT Manually 1. The clock time of the radio will set up automatically according to the RBDS data received. When the action is completed, will appear on the LCD display indicating the radio time is RBDS clock time. The radio clock time will be valid for seventy two hours each time the radio time is synchronized with RBDS CT. 13 Setting CT Automatically 1. To synchronize your CL-100 radio clock time without manual operation, press the MENU button and press TUNE DOWN to scroll down to the Clock menu.
