Configuration Items List
9.1 ICAO Number
The ICAO address is a 24-bit number issued to the aircraft by the
registration authority of the aircraft. These addresses are usually written as
a 6-digit hexadecimal number, although you may also encounter one
written as an 8-digit octal number. The FYXnav understands the
hexadecimal format. An octal number must be converted to hexadecimal
format before entering.
9.2 VFR Squawk Code
VFR squawk (Mode 3/A) code is a pre-programmed default code when the
pilot is flying VFR and not in contact with ATC. In the USA, the VFR
squawk code is 1200 and in most parts of Europe the VFR squawk code is
7000.
