Default PowerFlarm Update?

The hex code is part of a Mode S
transponder configuration. Mode A/C
transponders don't have a code.

The Trig Avionics website has the
Installation Manuals where you can read
up on Mode S transponder configuration.

JJ,

you also need a sentence in the config

file to set the kind of xponder.

# Set what kind of transponder you have

installed:
# 0 ... no XPDR (default)
# 1 ... Mode C
# 2 ... Mode S

# configure transponder type
$PFLAC,S,XPDR,2

JJ

You also need to configure the transponder with the HEX code as George said..

It is in the Garrecht Manual.
