1. Introduction 1.1. The AS07 The QK-AS07 is a high-accuracy, GPS, Glonass and Galileo GNSS positioning receiver. AS07 features superior sensitivity for consistent signal acquisition, reliable position accuracy, and accurate speed and course-over-ground readings. The AS07 is designed for marine environments and suitable for other outdoor and vehicular use, with an IPX6 waterproof housing.
QK-AS07 Manual 2. Installation and Operation 2.1. Dimensions, Mounting and Location Figure 1: AS07 Dimensions AS07 is designed to be securely positioned in an outdoor environment. The AS07 should be mounted to a strong and sturdy location. The AS07 has a standard G 3/4 screw thread.
QK-AS07 Manual 3. Connections The AS07 sensor has the following connections. • NMEA 2000 port. The AS07 is powered by the NMEA 2000 bus and sends positional data (PGN messages) through the NMEA 2000 bus, to be available to all connected devices.
QK-AS07 Manual 4. AS07-C: Using the Optional Output Switch (AS07-C) The AS07 is designed to be used out of the box, for instant positional data to your NMEA 2000 bus. Alternatively, the AS07 can be used with the AS07-C (optional purchase) for, 1.
QK-AS07 Manual 4.2. Connecting AS07-C via USB for Windows Configuration AS07-C is supplied with a USB connector. The USB cable can be linked directly to a USB port on a PC. Will you need a driver to connect via USB? To enable the USB data connection of AS07, related hardware drivers may be needed dependent on your system requirements.
QK-AS07 Manual 4.3. The Configuration tool (Windows PC) The free Configuration software is on the CD provided and is downloadable from www.quark-elec.com. Optional NMEA 2000 configuration The configuration tool must be used when plugged into a windows PC via USB cable.
QK-AS07 Manual Configuring the AS07 for backward compatibility with NMEA 0183 devices The configuration tool must be used when plugged into a windows PC via USB cable. The configuration tool must not be opened while other programs are using the AS07.
QK-AS07 Manual 4.4. NMEA 0183 wiring - RS422 or RS232? AS07 uses the NMEA 0183-RS422 protocol (differential signal), however some chart plotters or devices may use the older NMEA 0183-RS232 protocol (single-ended signal). Check which protocol your connecting NMEA devices (e.g. Chart plotter) uses. If you are unsure whether your connecting NMEA 0183 device uses NMEA 0183 RS422 or RS232, the input/output connections on the device will give you some indication.
