Transponder code selection is performed with eight
softkeys (0-7) providing 4,096 active identification codes.
Pressing one of these softkeys begins the code selection
sequence. The new code is activated five seconds after the

fourth digit is entered. The BKSP softkey removes one
digit at a time until the status bar is empty. The VFR soft-
key can be used to enter the pre-programmed VFR code
(1200 in the USA only) selected in G1000 configuration
mode.
NOTE: Refer to ICAO standards for VFR codes in
other countries.
Pressing the IDENT softkey activates the Special Posi-
tion Identification (SPI) pulse for 18 seconds, identifying
the transponder return on the ATC screen.
