2.8 GPIO
LARA-R2 series modules include 9 pins (GPIO1-GPIO5, I2S_TXD, I2S_RXD, I2S_CLK, I2S_WA) that can
be configured as general purpose input/output or to provide custom functions as summarized in Table
4 (for further details, see the LARA-R2 series System Integration Manual [2] and the GPIO section in
the u-blox AT Commands Manual [1]).
