	Space-capable vehicles list CPOC, TAC and YSP. While cockpit power is available, a change to your assigned docking port flashes the affected station row for three seconds in white and dark cyan, with the same three-pulse attention sound used by LAST. For example, a clearance can change CPOC to CPOC1. Reassignment or withdrawal also attracts attention; an unchanged assignment does not repeat the cue. The row returns to cyan when the flash ends.

	On an inbound approach, a separate tone sounds once when station range falls below 40 km. It does not loop while you remain inside. Moving back out to at least 40.1 km re-arms the tone for another inbound crossing; leaving the area is silent. This is an approach notification, not a docking clearance. Station-relative flight begins below 30 km and ends above 40 km.		On an inbound approach, a separate tone sounds once when station range falls below 40 km. At the same time, that station's row flashes white and dark cyan for three seconds, even when another station, waypoint or vessel is selected. Your selected contact stays selected. The tone does not loop while you remain inside. Moving back out to at least 40.1 km re-arms the tone for another inbound crossing; leaving the area is silent. This is an approach notification, not a docking clearance. Station-relative flight begins below 30 km and ends above 40 km.

	The approach tone requires cockpit power and an undocked, space-capable vehicle. Logging in, changing vehicles, restoring power or undocking while already inside the area does not play it. These station alerts are inactive in the simulator. The range rule is the same during atmospheric flight, ascent, suborbital flight, orbit and re-entry, with manual flight or Autoflyte.
