Introduction |
INTRODUCTION
Your Honeywell transponder is a radio transmitter and receiver which operates on radar frequencies. It receives interrogations from ground radar, airborne radar or TCAS, then returns a coded response of pulses to the interrogating system. The reply can be any one of 4,096 codes, which differ in the position and number of pulses transmitted.By replying to ground transmissions, your MST 67A enables Air Traffic Control (ATC) computers to display aircraft identification, altitude and ground speed on Enroute, Approach or Departure Control radar screens. When IDENT is selected, your aircraft is positively identified to the Air Traffic Controller. The MST 67A also works as part of a TCAS II system.
The MST 67A provides you with optimal Mode S transponder performance and offers all the capabilities needed to operate in the evolving world airspace. The MST 67A incorporates the latest technology, including the Elementary and Enhanced Surveillance functionality and data link capability with full Level 3 compliance.
The MST 67A features a unique Flight ID function that converts the transponder Mode S address (for US registered aircraft only) into the tail number of your aircraft. For most Part 91 operators, this is also your Flight ID, so it’s automatically stored in the transponder register, eliminating the need to install and use an additional control head or FMS. This makes compliance with Elementary Surveillance simple and convenient.
The MST 67A provides flexibility by allowing you to choose either diversity or non-diversity installation or to upgrade from non-diversity to diversity to keep up with changing regulations.
The MST 67A can be controlled by a choice of control heads, and the operation of the transponder using each is detailed in Section I.

CTA 81A, CTA 81B CTA 81C AND CTA 81D CONTROLS AND DISPLAYS
The CTA 81 ( ) Control Unit is the control for the transponder. The CTA 81A/D controls two Mode S transponder. The CTA 81B controls one Mode S transponder and one ATCRBS ARINC 572 transponder. The CTA-81C controls one Mode S transponder.
Note: Controls vary depending on CTA 81 ( ) configuration installed. Control functions same as typical unit shown.
