Confirm Code
When the MX20 starts up and you then press any function key, a pop-up will appear for you to confirm or set
your aircraft FID (Flight ID). Press OK to confirm the displayed FID or press 1200 to set the FID to 1200. The
FID will not be sent to the GDL 90 UAT until you confirm the FID. Note that when the GDL 90 powers up it
defaults to a 1200 FID.

Operation

The controls at the bottom of the screen allow you to zoom in and out, initiate an Ident when connected to a
GDL 90 UAT, and to select each traffic target on the screen.

distance, speed, and altitude. Position is noted in clock numerals as relative to direction of travel for
each aircraft. For instance, a position noted as 11/2 means that the traffic is at your aircraft (ownship)
11 o'clock position and your aircraft (ownship) is at the target's 2 o'clock position.
