Thank you I owned a MRX, I am a former AS350B2 pilot from Colombia.
one question ..when I fly at an altitude for ATC coverage the squawk code shows normaly as TRA altitude, but, when I descend below ATC coverage, why remains squawk code number but not TRA altitude? Thank you

When the unit shows an Altitude with TRA in front of, it means that the MRX is using the altitude information from the host aircrafts transponder reply.
If the altitude has ALT in front it means it is using it's internal pressure inducer.

Thank you Mrs. rachel but the question is about, why the squawk code ex: 4547 remains visible (freeze), when you descend below ATC ground radar coverage. and for the next fly obviusly disappear.

As long as your transponder is hit by interrogation from any source it will reply and can still show you an accurate reading of the host squawk code.
This code hovers in memory until either it is powered down or replaced by a more recent reading of the host transponder.
