into your application.
Connect vehicle interfaces and positioning to programmable application logic. Keep the exact GNSS variant in view when planning an installation.
Match the positioning task
The standard model provides dual-band GNSS. The U1 model combines a different GNSS receiver with an integrated IMU and dead reckoning.
Plan power behavior
External-power loss powers the device down by default. Battery operation is configurable, while digital outputs require external power.

on the variant.
The standard and U1 models use different GNSS receivers. Use the matching data sheet and the model-specific sections of the shared technical manual.
RTCU LX2 pro
The standard model uses an Airoha dual-band L1/L5 multi-constellation GNSS receiver. Its positioning specification is distinct from the U1 model.
RTCU LX2 pro U1
The U1 model uses a u-blox NEO-M9V single-band receiver with integrated IMU and Untethered / Automotive Dead Reckoning. Use the U1 data sheet for this variant.
