Test or Demo Alerts
The NWS sends out daily and weekly
test signals you can use to confirm
that your Weatheradio is working
properly. To find out the specific test
schedule in your area, contact your
local NOAA or NWS office.
When the Weatheradio’s alert
function is turned on and the
Weatheradio receives a test
broadcast for a programmed FIPS
code, it responds in one of these
ways:
PROGRAMMING THE
TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
Paired with the remote sensor, your
Weatheradio registers temperatures
indoors and outdoors. When you set
the Weatheradio and the remote
sensor to the same channel (1–3),
your Weatheradio displays the
current temperatures for the selected
sensor. You can view the minimum
and maximum temperatures and
display the temperature in
°
C or
°
F.
