# HEX/ProfiCNC Here2 GPS
The Here2 GPS receiver (opens new window) is an update to the Here GPS module from HEX.
Main features include:
- Concurrent reception of up to 3 GNSS (GPS, Galileo, GLOSNASS, BeiDou)
- Industry Leading -167 dBm navigation sensitivity
- Security and integrity protection
- Supports all satellite augmentation systems
- Advanced jamming and spoofing detection
# Where to Buy
# Configuration
Setup and use on PX4 is largely plug and play.
Note
- If the GPS is not detected then update the Here2 firmware (opens new window).
- If the GPS is detected but does not work, attempt the process outlined in allocating node uavcan ID (opens new window).
# Wiring and Connections
The Here2 GPS comes with an 8 pin connector that can be inserted directly into the Pixhawk 2 (opens new window) GPS UART port.
The Pixhawk 3 Pro and Pixracer have a 6 pin GPS port connector. For these controllers you can modify the GPS cable (as shown below) to remove pin 6 and 7.
Pin 6 and 7 are for the safety button - these can be attached as well if needed.
# Pinout
The Here2 GPS pinout is provided below. This can be used to help modify the connector for other autopilot boards.
