Mode-S data

Hi

Was having a discussion with a few colleagues about what data an ATCO can see with regards to an aircrafts selected FCU or FMC panels.
I'm an airbus pilot for a large LOCO and was wondering exactly what data is transmitted to ATC.

My understanding is ATC can see selected speed, HDG and selected FL/ALT - is this true?
Finally, i've had a few TCAS TA's in the past week and was wondering whether ATC were alerted to a TA at the same time we were or whether you used a different alerting system?

Thanks guys
