LYNDONVILLE, N.Y. - June 15, 2010 - Digital Alert Systems (DAS), a division of Monroe Electronics and provider of enhanced emergency alert systems (EAS), has partnered with WideOrbit, the leading provider of business management software for media companies. Together, the two companies have tightly integrated Digital Alert Systems' flagship DASDEC^TM-II EAS platform with WideOrbit's WO Automation for Radio^TM.

The pairing of the two systems is designed to streamline operations, prevent emergency alert "step-on" insertion over advertiser material and produce a more polished and sophisticated on-air product. The software integration between DASDEC-II and WO Automation for Radio allows for better deployment of emergency alerts, with streamlined communication between the systems that allow radio broadcasters to automatically schedule alerts to play to air at an appropriate time.

"This integration clearly demonstrates the benefit of WO Automation for Radio's open widget-based architecture," said Eric R. Mathewson, founder and CEO of WideOrbit. "By making it easy for companies like Digital Alert Systems to integrate their EAS technology with WideOrbit's Radio Automation system, together we're delivering a greater benefit and product to our clients, ensuring that their spots and content are airing without interruption while observing all FCC regulations."

"With our partnership with WideOrbit, two great products are now even better. This is the industry's first complete integration of an EAS with an automation system capable of supporting a number of different stations. Radio broadcasters will benefit from a cohesive system that can automate simultaneous EAS alerts over many channels airing diverse content at different times," said Bill Robertson, business development manager for Digital Alert Systems. "With such a refined integration between WideOrbit's sophisticated automation system and our DASDEC platform, the negative and often costly consequences of forced switching and advertising step-ons are eliminated. We're able to ensure a better on-air product for the broadcaster."

WideOrbit's WO Automation for Radio, formerly Google Radio Automation, is the industry's most modern and powerful Radio Automation system. WO Automation for Radio 2.0 now has Leader and Follower functionality, which allows two or more radio stations to share common programming like music, but break apart for independent commercial breaks or longer segments. All stations can be run from one computer, separate computers, or computers in different time zones, delivering flexibility and scalability for broadcasters running multiple stations from a single location. WO Automation for Radio 2.0 also delivers seamless integration with WideOrbit's WO Traffic for an unequaled end-to-end radio solution.

Ready to go straight from the box, the DASDEC-II emergency messaging platform is an IP-based, CAP-compatible digital EAS encoder/decoder. The system includes a standard browser-based interface for remote monitoring and control, up to four Ethernet ports for multiple access points within a station, integrated support for MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 output, and support for a broad range of interface protocols and third-party products, as well as complete FCC-compliance logging within the system's non-volatile memory or network storage. DASDEC-II is available in a variety of configurations, ranging from low-cost, decoder-only set-ups, to sophisticated multichannel centralcasting messaging requirements.
