R  bits are overlaid. In the all-call reply, the 24 parity check 
R  bits are overlaid on the Mode S interrogation address and the 
R  transponders' discrete address is included in the text of the 
R  reply. The main function of Mode S is surveillance. To 
R  accomplish this function, the Mode S transponder uses the 
R  56-bit transmissions (in each direction). In the 56-bit 
R  transmissions, the aircraft reports its altitude or ATCRBS 
R  4096 code, and the flight status (airborne, on-ground, alert, 
R  Special Position Identification (SPI), etc. 
R  The discrete addressing and digital encoding of Mode S 
R  transmissions permit their use as a digital data link. The 
R  interrogation and reply formats of the Mode S system contain 
R  sufficient coding space to permit the transmission of data. 
R  These data transmissions may be used for air traffic control 
R  purposes, air-to-air data interchange for collision avoidance, 
R  or to provide flight advisory services such as weather 
R  reports, or Automated Terminal Information System (ATIS). Most 
R  Mode S data link transmissions will be handled as one 56-bit 
R  message included as part of a long 112-bit interrogation or 
R  reply. These transmission include the message in addition to 
R  the surveillance data. 
R  Longer messages are transmitted using the Extended Length 
R  Message (ELM) capability (if external ADLP is installed). The 
R  ELM is capable of transmitting up to sixteen 80-bit message 
R  segments at a rate of 8 per second, either ground-to-air or 
R  air-to-ground. The ELM can be acknowledged with a single reply 
R  or interrogation. ELMs uplinked need not be replied to 
R  individually, but can be acknowledged in a reply containing a 
R  summary of the received interrogations. 
R  ELMs do not contain surveillance data. 
R  a_  Mode S interrogation message formats
R  All valid Mode S interrogation are listed here. 
R  The first 5 bits of the message indicate a UF message 
R  format. 
R  Items in brackets, e.g (AP:24) represent the "AP" field 
R  code, and the number of bits in the field "24". 
R  Underscored numbers represent unused fields and must not be 
R  processed.
