Quark-Elec QK-A034-B Setup Manual

QK-A034-B
7. Standard WiFi Ad-hoc connec-
tion on your wireless device:
15 seconds after the A034-B has
powered up, scan for a WiFi net-
work with an SSID similar to 'QK-
A034xxxx'.
Connect to 'QK-A034xxxx' with
the default password: '88888888'.
Chart software: in your chart soft-
ware, set the protocol to 'TCP', IP
address to '192.168.1.100' and
port number to '2000'
For Station mode WiFi or to disable WiFi, use the Configuration software. (see below)
8. Follow your marine software/APP instructions for adding input/output data sources.
A general overview can be found in the A034-B manual.
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
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. This is critical if outputting to NMEA 0183 to avoid overflow as NMEA
0183 is considerably slower than NMEA 2000.
Monitor the data stream Via USB
Use the 'Display' tab on the Configuration tool to monitor all input data including the data
received through NMEA 2000 backbone. (both PCDIN and NMEA 0183 format)
NMEA Default Baud rates can be adjusted as required. Default Baud rates settings are:
•
NMEA IN 1 and 2: 4800bps
•
NMEA IN 3: 38400bps
•
NMEA OUT: 4800bps
