7700 and ADS-B
Does anyone know if there is an ADS-B UAT/1090 installation configuration that in an emergency requires anything along these lines...
c) set transponder to Code 7700 and, if applicable, select the appropriate emergency mode on ADS-B
and/or ADS-C;
c) set transponder to Code 7700 and, if applicable, select the appropriate emergency mode on ADS-B
and/or ADS-C;

Emergency Status. The installation must provide a means for the pilot to enter the emergency status of the aircraft. Although TSO-C166b and TSO-C154c identify multiple emergency codes, only the codes for general emergency, no communications, and unlawful interference are required to be available for broadcast. It is acceptable to base the ADS-B emergency status on the emergency status code input into the transponder (i.e. Mode 3/A codes 7500, 7600, and 7700.) See paragraph 3-7 c (5) for information on single point of entry of the emergency status.
