TRANSPONDER [MODE S]
& ENCODING ALTIMETER
The Air Traffic Control Transponder (Mode S), King MST- 67A, with Encoding Altimeter,
King KEA-129, provides Mode A and Mode C identification, recognition, and altitude
reporting capability for use with the existing Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System
(ATCRBS), as well as additional capability for use with the FAA Traffic Alert and Collision
Avoidance System (TCAS II), and future compatibility with ATCRBS Mode S ground
stations. FAA regulations require that transponders installed in U.S. registered aircraft
with ten or more seats, and which are engaged in sometypes of Air Transport Operations
must be MODE S compatible. Each Mode S transponder installation is assigned a unique
address code (consisting of eight digits), which will enable Mode S ground stations to
selectively interrogate specific aircraft, even in high-density traffic situations. In addition
to enhanced air traffic control functions it is fully TCAS II compatible.
