February 1986, or a later version as in force from time to time; or
(b) EASA, in accordance with ETSO-C112a as in force on 24 October 2003, or a later version as in force from time to time; or
(c) CASA, in accordance with an instrument of approval of the type.
Note   CASA Advisory Circular 21-46 provides guidelines on Mode S transponder equipment.
       9C.4The aircraft address entered into the equipment must exactly correspond to the aircraft address assigned to the aircraft by CASA or the relevant RAAO.
       9C.5The equipment must transmit each of the following when interrogated on the manoeuvring area of an aerodrome or in flight:
(a) the aircraft address;
(b) the Mode A code;
(c) the Mode C code;
(d) subject to paragraph 9C.7, the aircraft flight identification in accordance with paragraph 9C.6.
       9C.6The aircraft flight identification must:
(a) if a flight notification is filed with ATC for the flight — correspond exactly with the aircraft identification mentioned on the flight notification; or
(b) if no flight notification is filed with ATC for the flight:
           (i) for an aircraft registered on the Australian Civil Aircraft Register — be the aircraft registration mark; or
           (ii) for an Australian aircraft registered by a RAAO — be in accordance with the RAAO's operations manual; or
       (c)      be another flight identification directed or approved for use by ATC.
       9C.7Mode S transponder transmission of the aircraft flight identification is optional for any aircraft that was manufactured before 9 February 2012 (an older aircraft). However, if an older aircraft is equipped to transmit, and transmits, an aircraft flight identification then that aircraft flight identification must be in accordance with paragraph 9C.6.
       9C.8If the equipment transmits any Mode S EHS DAPs, the transmitted DAPs must comply with the standards set out in paragraph 3.1.2.10.5.2.3 and Table 3-10 of Volume IV, Surveillance and Collision Avoidance Systems, of Annex 10 of the Chicago Convention.
Note 1   Paragraph 3.1.2.10.5.2.3 includes 3.1.2.10.5.2.3.1, 3.1.2.10.5.2.3.2 and 3.1.2.10.5.2.3.3.
Note 2   Australian Mode S SSR are EHS DAPs-capable, and operational use of EHS DAPs is to be introduced in Australia. Implementation of Mode S EHS DAPs transmissions that are not in accordance with the ICAO standards may be misleading to ATC. Operators need to ensure that correct parameters are being transmitted.
       9C.9If the equipment is carried in an aircraft manufactured on or after 9 February 2012:
(a) having a certificated maximum take-off weight above 5 700 kg; or
(b) that is capable of normal operation at a maximum cruising true air speed above 250 knots;
       the equipment's receiving and transmitting antennae must:
(c) be located in the upper and lower fuselage; and
(d) operate in diversity, as specified in paragraphs 3.1.2.10.4 to 3.1.2.10.4.5
