The available models di er in the interfaces they o er.
TFX Internal Antenna
With this device, you can log position data and transmit and

be logged and transmitted at a later time. In logging mode,
the CAN data is saved to the device and can subsequently
be transmitted.
TFX External Antenna
The device has the same functions as the TFX Internal
Antenna, but instead of the integrated antenna, it has
external antenna ports for mobile radio and position
tracking (GNSS).
