updated my ifds and now my transponder seems to be stuck in standby mode. It is the avidyne remote transponder that I control with the ifd. When I type in a code and tap alt or anything it goes to standby. Atc could not see my ads b or my squawk code. I pulled the breaker twice in flight and tried everything I know. We continued the flight into Asheville and we are departing tomorrow. Anyone know of anything simple I can do to fix it? Will Asheville let me depart? Do i need to call them 1 hour before departure and request permission to depart?

If it worked prior to the update, then you should check the IFD configuration Channel Input: AXP322 Channel Output: AXP322 Remote XPDR Configuration (Page 12) This page will configure the Avidyne AXP322 Remote transponder. . Please note; it may take up to 3 minutes to update the transponder configuration after changing a parameter below. Hex Code: Enter the aircraft's Mode S Address issued by the registration authority. This code must be entered as a hexadecimal value. A/C Width: Enter the aircraft's width in meters A/C Length: Enter the aircraft's length in meters GPS Lin. Offset: Enter the distance from the front of the aircraft to the GPS antenna in meters 1090 MHz Receiver: Enter "Yes" if the aircraft is equipped with 1090 MHz ADS-B In receiver UAT Receiver: Enter "Yes" if the aircraft is equipped with UAT ADS-B In receiver Squat Input: For ADS-B out compliance, a squat switch is required for automatically selecting the transponder air or ground mode of operation. For aircraft without a squat switch, connect the squat switch input of the transponder to P1001 pin 8 of one of the IFD5XX/IFD4XX for IFD‟s with software 10.0.0 or higher. In either case, set the transponder to “Avidyne” when performing the squat switch setup. A/C Class: Enter the aircraft category A/C Speed: Enter the aircraft speed GPS Lat.

The settings for the remote AXP322 get RESET with the update to 10.2.3.1. Just go into the maintenance menu, and reenter them. The only other thing I needed to reenter (not on the transponder page) was the GPS height. * Orest |

Below are my settings, obviously you have to enter your own Hex Code. Edited by oskrypuch - 18 Aug 2019 at 12:00am |

The Mode S hex code is on the FAA website under your tail number.
