Well, actually best to just check your documentation.

In our case it has to be TA/RA as that is the auto-mode (boeing aircraft). Doesn't cause any problems either. Correctly installed TCAS/Transponder systems using TA/RA on the ground do nothing but displaying other targets but cannot be processed by other ACAS systems as they use the ground flag which precludes interrogation by other ACAS systems.
