ZED-F9P USB Serial Enumeration

Community Projects
1

Trying to use the ZED-F9P GSP module with Raspberry Pi & GPSD.

The module enumerates as a USB serial device on Windows. I can connect with u-center no problem.

Is there a way to configure the module to enumerate as a serial over USB port so that I can connect from Raspberry Pi? Or do I need to talk to the UART directly?

Specifically I am trying to use GPSD on Raspberry Pi to read from the ZED-F9P module.

You’d need a driver for USB to work on a Pi, I’m not sure if Ublox has a Pi driver, the [Ublox Support Community may be able to point you to a driver if one exists.

Since the UART on the ZED-F9P is 3.3 volts, you could directly connect RX TX and GND to the Pi’s UART though. Not as simple as plugging in via USB, but you get the same data.](u-blox Portal)
