V1.0 (1220) Note: SeaTalk™ is a registered trademark of Raymarine.
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 Staon mode or Standby.
Staon mode is congured by inpung your router/access point’s details into the Conguraon
soware. (once congured, the correct sengs must be entered into your chart soware.)
Filtering: using the black list funcon
If desired, selected NMEA sentences can be blocked from chosen input/s, using the ’black list ‘
eld. Remove the ‘$’ or ‘!’ from the 5 digit NMEA talker and sentence idener and insert sepa-
rated by commas. For example to block ‘!AIVDM’ and ‘$GPAAM’ enter ‘AIVDM,GPAAM’ .
Up to 8 sentences types can be ltered from each input port. If blacklisng SeaTalk1 data, block
the corresponding NMEA message (see the manual for a full list of converted messages).
Roung your data.
As a default, all inputs’ data (excluding any ltered data) is routed to all outputs . Data can be
routed to limit the data ow to certain output/s by un-cking the corresponding boxes in the
Conguraon soware. This is crical if outpung to NMEA 0183 to avoid overow as NMEA
0183 is considerably slower than NMEA 2000.
Monitor the data stream Via USB
Use the ‘Display’ tab on the Conguraon 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 sengs are:
• NMEA IN 1 and 2: 4800bps
• NMEA IN 3: 38400bps
• NMEA OUT: 4800bps

and pracces. It is the user’s responsibility to use this product prudently. Neither Quark-elec, nor their distributors or

7. Standard WiFi Ad-hoc connec-
on on your wireless device:
15 seconds aer 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 soware: in your chart so-
ware, set the protocol to ‘TCP’, IP
address to ‘192.168.1.100’ and
port number to ‘2000’
For Staon mode WiFi or to disable WiFi, use the Conguraon soware. (see below)
8. Follow your marine soware/APP instrucons for adding input/output data sources.
A general overview can be found in the A034-B manual.

Please recycle your packaging
This is an overview only. Familiarize yourself with the manual and the manuals of
any connecng devices before installaon. It is always recommended that electronic
equipment be installed by an experienced installer.
QK-A034-B
Before leaving home:
NMEA 2000 power required
Conguraon soware is oponal and only needed for specic features.
To use any of the following features, you will require the Conguraon Soware:
• Changing WiFi mode from Ad-hoc to Staon mode or Standby
• Adjusng Baud rates from their default sengs
• Filtering unwanted or excess data
• Roung Data away for certain output devices ( important if using NMEA 0183 output)
• Full Diagnoscs monitoring of the data streams
Conguraon soware (Windows) will be required to adjust these sengs. (see back of this
guide for more informaon). Driver may be required for older Windows PCs. This may install
automacally to Windows 10 systems (if not, it is on the free CD and at quark-elec.com)
The Cong Soware, driver and full manual are on the included CD and on www.quark-elec.com.
Consider whether there is a CD reader/internet access on site, if not, pre-congure your device
or pre-install the Conguraon soware and driver if needed.
Installaon
1. Mounng: Consider your locaon
• Dry, sturdy locaon 0.5m from other WiFi equipment.
• Ensure you have the correct length of cables needed. If drilling holes for your cabling, seal
around any holes to prevent damage to your vessel or equipment.
2. Disconnect power from NMEA 2000 Backbone and
Disconnect power from all NMEA and SeaTalk1 devices to be connected.
3. Connect any input/output devices.
NMEA 0183 input/output: Connect the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ terminals of the NMEA input/output on the
A034-B to the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ terminals of the output/input on the instrument.
The A034-B uses NMEA 0183-RS422. If your connecng device uses the older NMEA 0183-
RS232 and you are having issues with your NMEA connecon, you may nd swapping these
terminals works for your device. Alternavely, connect it using a Protocol Bridge (QK-AS03).
NMEA 0183 output: Filtering and Roung are crucial if using the NMEA 0183 output.
NMEA 2000 runs at 250kbps, while standard NMEA 0183 ports runs at 4.8kbps or 38.4bps. Data
overow (loss) cannot be avoided without careful ltering of unneeded data (Black-list
funcon) and Roung of the dataow away from unneeded outputs. (See full manual)
You can also increase the baud rate (from default 4800bps) if necessary.
• SeaTalk input: Take care to connect the ‘+’, ‘Data’ and ‘-’ correctly. Swapping any of these
wires can permanently damage the A034-B mulplexer.
4. Connect the A034-B to your un-powered NMEA 2000 backbone
5. Re-Connect power to your connected devices and NMEA 2000 backbone. The A034-B is
powered by the NMEA 2000 backbone.
6. Check LED lights are working as expected
• SeaTalk1 and NMEA IN1/2/3 LEDs will ash for each valid message received on the respecve
SeaTalk on NMEA 0183 output.
• N2K: LED will ash for each valid NMEA 2000 PGN sent out on 2000 port.
• OUT: LED will ash for each valid message send out on the NMEA 0183 output.
• Overow: LED will ash if the NMEA 0183 output experiences overow, due to an excessive
queue, above the buer allowance (data loss).
• USB: LED will ash for each valid NMEA message sent to USB output.
• WiFi: LED will ash for each valid NMEA message sent to WiFi output.
• PWR (Power): LED light is constantly lit in red when the device is powered.
