WARNING: 

Use this feature at your own risk. It is imperative that service providers use 
this feature carefully so as not to suppress EAS messages on services that do 
not already provide EAS information. We do not take responsibility for the 
incorrect use of this feature. 

The EAS suppression feature allows service providers to suppress EAS information 
on digital channels that already provide EAS coverage to their viewers.  

For example, the digital channel might carry a local over-the-air TV station that is 
rebroadcast through the service provider's system. The TV station provides EAS 
coverage through its own process. 

Beginning with SARA 1.60 and SARA 1.90 (DVR), a new URL modifier (;NOEAS) 
was added that allows service providers to suppress EAS on digital channels. 

Notes:  



 

EAS suppression is only available to systems that use SARA, our resident 
application. 



 

The URL modifier has no effect unless the set-top is tuned to a digital channel 
where the EAS message is received.
