Emergency/Weather Alert
Emergency/Weather Alert allows your ATLANTIS 250 to function
as a severe weather warning radio and will also alert you to any
local or national emergencies. If the NOAA issues warning while
this feature is turned On, the radio sounds an alert tone. You will
then hear the emergency/weather broadcast.
To use Emergency/Weather Alert, select the
emergency/weather channel in your area.
Press and hold the WX/ALERT button for
2 seconds. A double confirmation tone
sounds.
When the unit receives a warning signal,
it beeps for 5 seconds. WX, ALERT, and
the channel number blinks.
To turn Off Emergency/Weather Alert,
press and hold the WX/ALERT button for
2 seconds. A double confirmation tone
sounds.
• When Emergency/Weather Alert is activated, the highest priority
is given this function. If the unit is in Scan, Triple Watch, or any
other marine channels, it checks the weather alert signals every
7 seconds and switches to the warning receive mode
automatically.
