TCAS question

Greeting to all!

I have a few questions on TCAS system (TACS 2 with Mode S)

1. is there any minima for TCAS to be ignored ? - lets say you are on your final approach and your Radio Altimeter is alive! if you get a TCAS RA, how would you behave?

2. Is there any maximum traffic load TACS2 can handle?

3. When TCAS2 RA is given to climb, what if a Mode A or C airplane is in the path? TCAS2 is blind for Mode A or C!

Sorry, too many things asked! just that I am trying to find the logic behind this. And if there is any place if I can find the "Logical Standard" of TCAS . . would be ideal or your valuable experience would really quench my thirst!

Thank you all!
