    Section 919 Pilot´s Operating Handbook BECKER ATC 4401 Transponder EXTRA 200 Note Unintentional transmission of an emergency code is prevented in that the transponder replies are inhibited whilst the code is being set. This applies particularly where the new code is being set in the ON or ALT modes. Also if a special code is called up, no transponder reply takes place during the period in which the previous code can be reactivated (approximately 3 seconds).
