    Pilot´s Operating Handbook Section 912 EXTRA 300LT BECKER BXP 6401 Transponder N O T E The blind encoder is only powered if the transponder is not switched OFF (at least SBY). A blind encoder needs a warm-up time (sometimes a several minutes). Therefore although the solid state transponder needs no warm-up time, turn the transponder to SBY immediately after starting the engine.
