The regular GPS pins (RX, TX, PPS, etc.) are also broken out to a 10-pin 0.1" pitch header, and a small protoyping area is also provided.
The DLINE/UART switch switches the GPS module's input/output between Arduino's standard TX/RX pins and digital pins 2 and 3.
An ON/OFF switch is included which controls power to the GPS module. Finally, the Arduino reset switch is also brought out.
The shield also includes the footprint for a to provide battery backup to the optional EB-85A gps module.GPS modules are not included with the GPS Shield, and only the EM-406 connector is populated. Headers are also not installed, we recommend the and .
