Powering the FR800
The FR800 can be powered by 3 D cell batteries or with an AC adapter (included). Install the 3 D cell batteries into the battery compartment on the back of the radio, matching them to the polarity diagram. Plug the AC adapter into the upper socket on the left side of the radio. Battery
condition is shown on the right side of the display with a battery symbol that’s fi lled with black hatch marks. When the AC adapter is plugged in a power cord appears next to the battery symbol, which only has two hatch marks in it.
Setting S.A.M.E.
Codes in the US, CLC Codes in Canada
• S.A.M.E. = Specific Area Message Encoding
• CLC = Canadian Location Codes
A six-digit code instructs the radio only to receive an ALERT when the code is programmed in. There are far too many S.A.M.E and CLC codes to include them all in this manual. We therefore provide the following to assist you in looking up the code for your area.
Look up a United States county code at the following web site:

Look up a Canadian CLC code at:

Your radio can be set for one (SINGL) to 23 (MULTI) codes, or can be set to receive ALL coded information sent from any transmitter, if you’re within range. When you set codes, it will only pick up alerts when you’re in that county or within reception distance of the signal. ALL, MULTI or SINGLE COUNTY will appear in the lower left side of the display, depending on how you have set it.
