Configure the event codes list for IPAWS devices

BlackBerry AtHoc
 has a robust list of event codes. However, you might want to remove some of the codes from the list to simplify choices for operators during an emergency.
  1. Log in to the 
    BlackBerry AtHoc
     application server as an administrator.
  2. Navigate to the following folder:
    <AtHocENS>/ServerObjects/utils/AddOnModules/UAP/Enable
  3. Locate the file 
    30-UAP-IPAWS-WEA-EXTENSIONS.xml
    .
  4. Make a backup copy of the file in a temp folder.
  5. Edit the file in Notepad and remove any event codes your organization is not using. For example, in the following image, the avalanche warnings are removed because they are not needed in West Texas.
