Warning
When using ADS-B or remote ID, there must be an adequate antenna or load connection to the DAA SMA.
7 GNSS2 SSMA connector
8 M2M SSMA connector
Warning
If the BLOS module is enabled, a suitable antenna must be connected to this SSMA port. The 4G Antenna with the Embention reference P000112 is recommended.

Both static pressure ports must be used for sensor redundancy (Y tubing connection is strongly recommended).

Warning

The static pressure port 4 is always used by Autopilot 1x to calculate speed (using the difference of pressure between ports 4 and 5), no matter which sensor is selected in configuration.
