GENERAL
TRANSPONDER (GTX)
The Garmin Transponder (GTX 33) is a solid-state transpon-
der that replies to Mode A (4096 codes), Mode C and Mode S
interrogations. It is capable of responding with transponder
capability and airplane Flight ID to ground station interrogation
to support elementary surveillance. If the airplane is not
equipped with the optional Skywatch system or it is not opera-
tional, the GTX 33 will work with the Traffic Information Service
(TIS). Where TIS is available, the GTX 33 will display all
responding ATCRBS Mode A and Mode C transponder
equipped airplanes within seven nautical miles from 3000 feet
below to 3500 feet above the airplane. The TIS system only
operates while in the ground-based service area. Transponder
codes and mode selection are accessed by the XPDR softkey
at the bottom of the PFD. Squawk codes can also be entered
using the PFD FMS knob.
