## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=SS114990732:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/SS114990732:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

You will need a GPS module to determine the location of your Raspberry Pi, especially if the Raspberry Pi is set up for outdoor projects.

This Raspberry Pi GPS Module is built with CP2102 as USB to UART Bridge chip, which is stable and faster.
You can easily apply on your Raspberry Pi model A/A+/Zero/2/3B/3B+. There is also an L80-39 GPS chip inside the chip. The L80-39 is with 66 search channels and 22 simultaneous tracking channels, which can help communicate satellite with UART or USB.

Note

This module only fits for outdoor operation, please put the antenna in the open air.

As the serial port issue of Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, it may cause unexpected problems, we suggest that you do not connect the GPS module with Raspberry Pi directly with GPIO Pins.

The easiest way to get started is using a [USB-to-TTL cable](https://www.seeedstudio.com/USB-CP2102-Serial-Converter-p-2825.html) to connect GPS module and Raspberry Pi, and you can wire it up like this chart:

| **GPS module** | **Wire color** |
|---|---|
| VCC | Red wire |
| GND | Black wire |
| TXD | Green wire |
| RXD | White wire |

****Hardware Overview****

****Part List****

- 1 x USB-Port-GPS(L80-39) module
- 1 x USB data wire
