ATIS Codes

Default ATISmaker URL

http://uniatis.net/atis.php?metar=$metar($atisairport)&arr=$arrrwy($atisairport)&dep=$deprwy($atisairport)&apptype=ILS&info=$atiscode

The above URL is designed for Euroscope versions with only one ATIS. For the newest Euroscope versions with four ATISes, the letters A, B, C, or D need to be appended to the $atisairport and $atiscode parameters (e.g. $atisairportA for the first ATIS).

General ATIS Codes

Add the following code at the end of the ATISmakerURL to include the ATIS broadcast message. For all airports except Frankfurt the departure frequency has to be included in the ATIS!

EDFQ ATIS Setup

As EDFQ lacks its own certified METAR, automatic ATIS updates are currently not possible. However, an ATIS can still be generated manually using the following steps:

  • replace the $metar($atisairportA) parameter in the ATIS maker URL with the latest official EDFQ METAR
  • replace the EDFQ ICAO in the METAR with EDZZ
  • continue connecting the ATIS as usual

You will have to manually update the ATIS this way every time a new EDFQ METAR is published.

EDLA ATIS Setup

As EDLA lacks its own certified METAR, automatic ATIS updates are currently not possible. However, an ATIS can still be generated manually using the following steps:

  • replace the $metar($atisairportA) parameter in the ATIS maker URL with the latest EDLW METAR
  • replace the EDLW ICAO in the METAR with EDZZ
  • remove the &apptype and &depfreq parameters entirely
  • continue connecting the ATIS as usual

You will have to manually update the ATIS this way every time a new EDLW METAR is published.
