It was incorrect "squawk" spelling , mentioned wrongly as "squark" (NG) . And also the description of max. range code 0-9999 was incorrect, because each digit should be octal number , (0-7)

**ICAO24:** This code is selected with rotary encoder to enter the 6 digit numeric number. This is sometimes called the Mode S code and is a 24-bit unique number that is assigned to each vehicle or object that can transmit ADS-B messages. It is usually transmitted by aircraft but some airport ground vehicles and multi-lateration towers also have ICAO24 codes assigned to them.

* **Bearing:** The value is selected and the rotary encoder is used to select the value 0-999kn. 0-359 Degrees.
|
||||
* **Vertical Rate:** The value is selected and the rotary encoder is used to select the value -4096 to +4096 ft/min in steps of 64 (following the encoding standard). It indicates the vertical rate speed of the plane (+) climbing , (-) descending. In real plane ,that Vr source information can come from GNSS or Barometric altitude equipment. In mayhem fw , we are simulating a fix source from GNSS.

## Squark Tab

* **Transmit squark:** This is a tick box to turn on the transmission of the [Squark](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_transponder_codes) code.
|

* **Squark:** This can be selected with rotary encoder and has specific meanings. The code is from 0-9999. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_transponder_codes

* **Transmit squawk:** This is a tick box to turn on the transmission of the [Squawk](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_transponder_codes) code.
|

* **Squark:** This can be selected with rotary encoder and has specific meanings. The system identifies an aircraft through a four-digit octal number. (each digit number from 0-7), which provides up to 4.096 possilbe codes. The squawk code is from 0-7777. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_transponder_codes
