Excerpt from Simulation of Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon Code Assignment Plans: Final Report

For human recognition a beacon code is represented by four octal digits in the range 0000 to 7777. A pilot can set his transponder to any beacon code just by flipping four eight-position thumbwheels. Nevertheless, it is desirable to minimize code changes in flight because each change requires another controller-to-pilot communication, and there is always a chance of turning to a wrong code.
