See the Mode S Operational Overview pages of this site for details concerning the functionality requirements for Mode S EHS transponders.
AIC A 002/2010 (Mode S Procedures – Display of Downlinked Aircraft Parameters (DAPs) and Input of Correct Aircraft Identification in Budapest FIR) explains the benefits and use of certain DAPs. A copy of this AIC is available via the Hungary AICs link below.
Although the carriage and operation of a Mode S transponder capable of downlinking EHS aircraft parameters will not be compulsory in the Budapest FIR, where an aircraft is so equipped, the installation and wiring of the instruments and transponder shall guarantee the downlinking of correct values in accordance with certification guidance contained in EASA Document AMC 20-13, or other equivalent airworthiness specifications.
