The transponder system should be configured during initial system 
installation by a qualified technician. The configuration items list below 
should be used to document the system installation for future reference.

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.
