TRANSPONDER CONTROLS

Transponder function is displayed on three levels of softkeys on the PFD: Top-level, Mode Selection, and

Code Selection. When the top-level XPDR Softkey is pressed, the Mode Selection softkeys appear: XPDR1,
XPDR2, STBY, ON, ALT, VFR, CODE, IDENT, BACK.

When the CODE Softkey is pressed, the number softkeys appear: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, IDENT, BKSP,

BACK. The digits 8 and 9 are not used for code entry. Pressing the numbered softkeys in sequence enters
the transponder code. If an error is made, pressing the BKSP Softkey moves the code selection cursor to the
previous digit. Pressing the BKSP Softkey again moves the cursor to the next previous digit.

Pressing the BACK Softkey during code selection reverts to the Mode Selection Softkeys. Pressing the BACK

Softkey during mode selection reverts to the top-level softkeys.

The code can also be entered with the FMS Knob on either PFD. Code entry must be completed with either

the softkeys or the FMS Knob, but not a combination of both.

Pressing the IDENT Softkey while in Mode or Code Selection initiates the ident function and reverts to the

top-level softkeys.

After 45 seconds of transponder control inactivity, the system reverts back to the top-level softkeys.

Selecting and activating Transponder 1 or Transponder 2:

1)

Press the XPDR Softkey to display the Transponder Mode Selection Softkeys.

2)

Press the XPDR1 or XPDR2 Softkey to select and activate the other transponder.

When turning on the G1000 for use, the system activates Transponder 1 as the default unit, regardless of

which transponder was active prior to shutdown. When switching between Transponder 1 and Transponder 2,
the code and mode remain the same. If a new code is entered in the active transponder, switching transponders
does not bring back the previous code.
