Emergency Alerts

This device is designed to receive wireless
emergency alerts from the Commercial
Mobile Alerting System (CMAS) which may
also be known as the Personal Localized
Alerting Network (PLAN). For more
information, please contact your wireless

Emergency Alerts allows customers to
receive geographically-targeted messages.
