Table 20.   CTA-100A Control Unit Controls and Indicators

Control/Indicator

(See Figure 12)

Function

Mode Select Switch

Rotary switch.  Supplies mode control for the transponders 
and TCAS processor.  The mode selector switch can put 
the transponders into standby mode or active mode with 
altitude interrogation on or off.  The mode selector switch 
is also used to set the TA (Traffic Advisory) or TA/RA 
(Traffic Advisory/Resolution Advisory) modes for the TCAS 
processor.  The position of the mode selector switch finds 
the correct ARINC 429 control data to transmit to the Mode 
S transponders and the TCAS processor.  The switch 
supplies a momentary TEST position, which lets the 
personnel start a TCAS system test. 

(NOTE 1.)

    TEST Position

The TEST mode is to start the TCAS system test.  The 
TEST mode position is a momentary switch position.  
When the rotary switch is held in the TEST position for a 
minimum of one second, the CTA-100A outputs SSM = 
FUNCTIONAL TEST on all ARINC 429 labels.  When the 
rotary switch is released, the CTA-100A starts the previous 
SSM  transmission.

    STANDBY Position

The Standby/On discrete output for transponder No. 1 and 
transponder No. 2 are set to standby.
