Quark-Elec QK-A035 Setup Manual

QK-A035
6. Two WiFi modes:
Ad-hoc mode:
On your device (phone, laptop etc.):
15 seconds after powering up your A035, scan for
WiFi networks and select the SSID similar to 'QK-
A035xxxx'. Connect to 'QK-A035xxxx' 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'
Station mode: please use the configuration software
to change WiFi connection type to station mode.
USING THE CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE (WINDOWS):
WiFi connection mode can be changed from Ad-hoc (default) to station or standby mode.
Station mode can be configured by inputting your router/access point's details into the configu-
ration software. (Once configured, the correct settings must be entered into your chart software.)
Filtering: using the black list function
If required, selected NMEA sentences can be filtered out from the chosen inputs, using the 'black
list' field. Remove the '$' or '!' from the 5 digit NMEA talker and sentence identifier and insert
them separated by commas. E.g. to block '!AIVDM' and '$GPAAM' enter 'AIVDM,GPAAM' .
Up to 8 sentences types can be filtered from each input port. For blacklisting
the corresponding NMEA message (see the manual for a full list of converted messages).
Routing the Seatalk and NMEA sentences.
As a default, all inputs' data (excluding any filtered data) is routed to all outputs (NMEAx4, WiFi
and USB). Data can be routed to limit the data flow to only certain output/s by un-ticking the
corresponding boxes in the configuration software.
NMEA Baud rates: Default Baud rates are set to:
•
NMEA IN 1,2,3: 4800bps
•
NMEA IN 4: 38400bps
•
NMEA OUT 1,2: 4800bps
•
NMEA OUT 3,4: 38400bps
These can be changed as required.
USB input: The USB connection is 2 way as standard, no additional configuration required. Man-
ual NMEA input via USB is also possible through the configuration software. A good understand-
ing of NMEA sentence structure is required for this additional function.
