EASAlert
SECTION III. Requirements
1. Operating System
Microsoft Windows™ 7 / XP / Vista™
32-bit OS, Home, Premium, Pro editions
This application has not been tested with other operating systems.
2. Hardware Requirements
A desktop or portable Personal Computer with sound capabilities. Handheld devices such as PDA's, Palmtop's and Pocket PC's are not supported and generally do not have enough "horsepower" for this type of application.
CPU: 1 GHz or higher
Memory: 1GB RAM
Hard Disk: This application requires less than 15MB.
Monitor: SVGA or better is recommended, (at least 1024x768 resolution)
Sound Card / Audio Device: 16/24-bit stereo, full-duplex, MS-Windows compatible. One analog MIC, or LINE input is required.
Audio Receiver:
A receiver with wideband audio output is required. Most good quality police scanners, monitor receivers, televisions and AM/FM receivers will provide sufficient audio quality. Some weather radios, however will limit the SAME signal as to make it unusable use by an external decoder such as EASAlert. If capable, the receiver should be set to Wideband mode.
EASAlert is provided with a 30-day trial period to allow time for testing with one or more receivers. NOAA Weather Radio typically broadcasts the Required Weekly Test (RWT) each Wednesday morning. This is usually repeated by TV and AM/FM broadcast stations as required by the FCC.
