Dual GPS Esp32 with C099-F9P

Ive purchased three C099-F9P application boards made by Ublox. These were easy to get through digikey. I am going to use one as a base and the other two for a dual gps to get heading as MTZ8302 has done. I am stumped at the moment as I cannot figure out how to access tx2 and rx2 on these boards. Here is a link to their documents. https://www.u-blox.com/sites/default/files/C099-F9P-AppBoard-Mbed-OS3-FW_UserGuide_(UBX-18063024).pdf . Has anybody else had any experience with these? They seem to be a great unit.

From what i can dig up it looks like
RX1= Header J8-C pin 4 (labeled SPI Mosi) f9p pin 43
TX1= Header J8-C pin 5 (labeled SPI MISO) f9p pin42

RX2= Header J9-D Pin 1 (labeled RXD ZED) f9p pin 26
TX2= Header J9-D Pin 2 (labeled TXD ZED) f9p pin 27
Not sure if I am correct

C099-F9P is discussed in:

There is also a picture: “Showing the u-center screens for the ports on the Base and Rover.”

Perfect! Thanks esoumala!

So this is the info for anybody else looking. The board printing and documents are very hard to see.

UART1
RX1= Header J9-D Pin 1 (labeled RXD_ZED)
TX1= Header J9-D Pin 2 (labeled TXD_ZED)

UART2
TX2= Header J3-B Pin 1 (labeled DCS_TXD)
RX2= Header J3-B Pin 2 (labeled DCS_RXD)

Did you get it working. I just ordered some esp32 modules and am planning to do a dual antenna setup as well. Was about to order ardusimple boards but I have some c099 boards already.

Hi it work good
