2 - test, again the C++ largely ignores this since the test configuration of real-world instruments varies. In particular the unit does *not* for altitude or transmitted-id to any test values, you should do that in your own logic. (Maybe we should allow the test values to be defined int he config section?) | * 2 - test, again the C++ largely ignores this since the test configuration of real-world instruments varies.

3 - Ground mode, responds to altitude interrogation but does not broadcast an ID. This would typically be used while taxiing prior to takeoff. | * 3 - Ground mode, responds to altitude interrogation but does not broadcast an ID. This would typically be used while taxiing prior to takeoff. | ||
