2. Select where you want to store the location e.g. C1.
3. Select the 6-digit number e.g. “000000”. (“----“ means

the ALL option and will only receive warnings from
specified local areas.

corresponding FIPS code will be set into the memory.
You cannot convert the code back to the location name.
(FIPS is the Federal Information Processing System
number assigned to each State, or open waters in or
