Welcome to Buster Q!
To facilitate a new way of boating, Buster Boats has com-
pletely rethought the way you interact with the boat.
Inspired by the automotive and smartdevice industries, we
have taken all key functions and integrated them into one
huge touchscreen.
We also enhanced entertainment, safety and training func-
tions, bringing them into the realm of one intuitive user
experience – Buster Q.
Overview
Sidebar contains important
boating information, e.g. rpm and
speed. If the boat has a sounder
attached, the top part of the
sidebar displays sounder data.
You can switch modes and
access their functions by using
mode controls in the sidebar's
lower part. You can find the
same controls on your remote
controller if you have one.

Questions and answers
My Buster Q has stopped displaying motor data, only showing fuel level and speed over ground
Your Buster Q may not be displaying motor data because it relies on NMEA2000 compatibility to receive engine information. Possible reasons for missing motor data include:
1. No NMEA2000 Connection – Ensure the engine is properly connected to the Buster Q system via NMEA2000.
2. Incorrect Settings – Check the settings menu to verify that motor data display is enabled.
3. Data Source Issue – The engine may not be sending data correctly, or the connection may be loose.
4. Software or Firmware Issue – Restart the system and check for updates.
If the problem persists, inspect the wiring and connections or consult the manual for troubleshooting.
