This section is only applicable to those aircraft that use the GTX 33/33D or GTX 3000
transponder configuration loaded per Sections 3.13 or 3.14, respectively. There are two
different procedures in this section, one for G1000 System Software Version 0985.06
(and previous) and one for G1000 System Software Version 0985.07 (and subsequent).

knobs to enter the US aircraft registration number or other Mode-S registration number.

4. For US registered aircraft, the ‘FLIGHT ID TYPE’ field should be set to ‘SAME AS TAIL’.
For other aircraft, the ‘FLIGHT ID TYPE’ field should be set to ‘CONFIG ENTRY’ or
‘PFD ENTRY’.
NOTE
The CONFIG ENTRY setting requires the Aircraft Registration/ID number to be entered
once in the ‘FLIGHT ID’ field. The PFD ENTRY setting allows the pilot to enter the
Aircraft Registration/ID number from the PFD, via the ‘TMR/REF’ softkey.
5. After each configuration setting change, press the ENT key to configure the transponders.
6. Press the ENT key on PFD1 to acknowledge prompt.
