The Australian Telecommunications Alliance (ATA) have published an amendment to AS\/CA S042.1:2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This amendment incorporates a name change to the Emergency Cell Broadcast system, from the\u00a0National Messaging System (NMS)\u00a0<\/em>to\u00a0AusAlert<\/em>.<\/p>\n

There are no changes to requirements beyond the display of information – in future, mobile devices must use the AusAlert naming.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A copy of the revised standard can be downloaded for free from the ATA website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can find more information on the upcoming AusAlert system on the AusAlert website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
