9.5 Post-Installation Checks - Regulatory
Configure tailBeaconX before performing system checkouts.
Tab to the “Monitor” screen on the Installer App.
To aid in performance of regulatory
compliance checks, Ground Test
Mode forces the tailBeaconX into
an airborne state until the device is
power cycled. This ensures that the
device will respond to Mode S Only
All-Calls, which occurs only when
airborne.
To access Ground Test Mode,
scroll to the bottom of the Monitor
page and press the “Enable Ground
Test Mode” button. A message will
appear confirming selection of the
mode.
Once enabled, set the transponder
the appropriate mode (e.g., ALT)
and proceed with ramp testing.
When complete, power cycle the
tailBeaconX to reset to normal
operating mode.
Note: Certain control heads may
also be able to initiate Ground Test
Mode
