POST INSTALLATION CONFIGURATION AND CHECKOUT PROCEDURE

5.1

OPERATION

The coverage you can expect from the GTX 330 is limited to line of sight. Low altitude or
antenna shielding by the aircraft itself may result in reduced range. Range can be improved
by climbing to a higher altitude. It may be possible to minimize antenna shielding by
locating the antenna where dead spots are only noticed during abnormal flight attitudes.

5.1.1 Function Selector Switches

The function selection switches are:
• OFF  Powers off the GTX 330. Pressing the STBY, ON or ALT key powers on the transponder
displaying the last active identification code.
• STBY  Selects the standby mode. When in standby mode, the transponder will not reply to any
interrogations.
• ON  Selects Mode A and Mode S. In this mode, the transponder replies to Mode A, Mode C and Mode
S interrogations, as indicated by the Reply Symbol ("
information.
• ALT  Selects Mode A, Mode C and Mode S. In ALT mode, the transponder replies to identification,
altitude and Mode S interrogations as indicated by the Reply Symbol ("
interrogations include the standard pressure altitude received from an external altitude source,
which is not adjusted for barometric pressure. The ALT mode may be selected in aircraft not
equipped with an optional altitude encoder; however, the reply signal will not include altitude
information.
