Quark-Elec QK-A034 Setup Manual

QK-A034
7. Standard WiFi Ad-hoc connection
On your wireless device (tablet etc.):
15 seconds after the A034 has powered
up, scan for a WiFi network with an SSID
similar to 'QK-A034xxxx'.
Connect to 'QK-A034xxxx' with the de-
fault password: '88888888'.
Chart software: in your chart software,
set the protocol to 'TCP', IP address to
'192.168.1.100' and port number to '2000'
For Station mode WiFi setup or to disable WiFi, use the Configuration software. (see below)
USING THE CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE (WINDOWS):
Ad-hock WiFi passwords can be changed for security and memorability.
WiFi can be changed from Ad-hoc (default) to Station mode or Standby.
Station mode is configured by inputting your router/access point's details into the Configuration
software. (once configured, the correct settings must be entered into your chart software.)
Filtering: using the black list function
If desired, selected NMEA sentences can be blocked from chosen input/s, using the 'black list '
field. Remove the '$' or '!' from the 5 digit NMEA talker and sentence identifier and insert sepa-
rated by commas. For example to block '!AIVDM' and '$GPAAM' enter 'AIVDM,GPAAM' .
Up to 8 sentences types can be filtered from each input port. If blacklisting SeaTalk data, block
the corresponding NMEA message (see the manual for a full list of converted messages).
Routing your data.
As a default, all inputs' data (excluding any filtered data) is routed to all outputs . Data can be
routed to limit the data flow to certain output/s by un-ticking the corresponding boxes in the
Configuration software.
Monitor the data stream Via USB
Use the 'Display' tab on the Configuration tool to monitor all input data with all the data send
through NMEA 2000 backbone. (both PCDIN and NMEA 0183 format)
NMEA Baud rates: Default Baud rates settings are:
•
NMEA IN 1 and 2: 4800bps
•
NMEA IN 3: 38400bps
These can be adjusted as required.
