6. Installation Setup and Test
The TT21/TT22 uses a simple setup system to program important system
parameters, including the Mode S address. In the original factory
configuration, the setup screen is the first thing that runs when you switch on
the transponder. If the transponder has already been configured, and you want
to access the setup screen again, hold down the FN button while switching on
the transponder and the setup system will run.
The script will prompt for the following configuration items:
Mode S Address
VFR Squawk Code
VFR Flight ID (Registration)
Aircraft Maximum Airspeed
Aircraft Category
Squat switch source, if fitted
GPS position source, if fitted, and ADS-B parameters
This setup mode also allows the recalibration of the altitude encoder.
All the programming is accomplished using the right hand rotary knob and the
ENT and FN buttons. Make all input selections using the rotary knob.

input item. Pressing the FN button moves directly to the next screen.
