Hi There I recently received a QK-A034 Multiplexer and am going to install the unit this week.
On my boat I have a significant amount of legacy equipment to integrate.
My most difficult challenge is the unit shown below, a SeaTraceR AIS Unit.
Pleas can you tell me if the QK-A034 is compatible and if it is help me identify the correct connection sequence.
Best regards
Thanks for your information. I can understand your SeaTrace is a class B ais receiver which outputs AIS data at 38.4kbps speed.
So what my suggests is as below,
1, Make sure the input port which you will connected to be 38400bps(setup and check via the configuration tool(you need windows computer and USB connection)).
2，Connect Tx A and Tx B to NMEA in+ and NMEA in – of A034 (if it doesn’t work please swap two wires).
3, Check if the input LED flash when valid AIS/GPS messages received.
Thank you for the information you sent me, i visited my boat and using your instructions I was able to set up the network.
As you suggested I set up the Baud rate with my laptop without any issues. Initially I tried the green in + and the white in – with no data transfer. Swopped over the wires and immediately the data transfer started and the AIS reporting vessels in the area displayed on the plotter.
I have an Samsung Tab 2 with Navionics installed with an AIS overlay, was able to link the Wifi and overlay the AIS information.
Thank you for your help on this issue.
