Size and Pinouts

Hardware connection

  • Connect neo 4SE to the CAN1/CAN2 interface of the smart controller (CAN1 is recommended)

 Tip

The rest of the ArduPilot/PX4 flight stack setup is the same.

Flight control parameter settings

You need to set the flight controller parameters to enable Neo 4SE; the setting method varies depending on the flight controller firmware.

ArduPilot

Set the following parameters in the Mission planner’s All Parameters table and restart after writing:

  • CAN_P1_DRIVER is set to 1.
  • CAN_P2_DRIVER is set to 1.
  • NTF_LED_TYPES is set to 231.
  • GPS_TYPEGPS1_TYPE is set to 9 (if used as GPS1).

PX4

In the QGroundControl>Parameters window set the following parameters and reboot after writing:

  • UAVCAN_ENABLEis set to Sensors Automatic config .
  • UAVCAN_SUB_GPS is set to Enable.
