Chapter 4 Operation
Trouble Shoot Menu (key 4)
The Trouble Shoot menu is used to interrogate 4 user-definable transponders, and display
useful statistics for each one. The display used for this menu may be broken down into
two parts; the bottom half is used for user entry of transponder serial numbers and basic
commands, while the top half is used for transponder response information. An example
of the troubleshoot menu is shown in figure 8.

Troubleshoot User Entry
The keys 1-4 are used to enter a new transponder serial number. After choosing an entry
between 1-4, the new transponder serial number is entered most significant digit (MSD)
first, and will begin to be interrogated. As each active transponder entry is interrogated,
the appropriate top-half display fields update accordingly. To reset the current display
data, the ‘0’ key is used. The Troubleshooting sub-menu may be exited at any time by
pressing the ‘Q’ key.
