Using the NMEAremote© App with the A037 Engine Data Monitor – Real-Time Engine Data on Your Mobile Device
With the launch of the A037 Engine Data Monitor N2K Converter, Quark-elec has made it easier than ever to access live engine diagnostics through your existing NMEA 2000 network. But the benefits don’t stop at your chartplotter—by pairing the A037 with the NMEAremote© mobile app, you can monitor your engine data in real time, directly from your smartphone or tablet.
Whether you’re in the cockpit, the engine room, or enjoying a moment of calm on deck, you can stay connected to critical engine information—without having to return to the helm.
What Is NMEAremote©?
NMEAremote© is a powerful and flexible marine data display app available on both iOS and Android. It connects to your boat’s onboard NMEA network over Wi-Fi and allows you to view and customize a wide range of data displays—including engine metrics, navigation data, and sensor outputs.
It’s the perfect match for the A037, which translates J1939 engine data into NMEA 2000 format.
What You Can See with A037 + NMEAremote©
When the A037 is connected to your vessel’s NMEA 2000 backbone, it streams detailed engine data that NMEAremote© can display. These include:
-
RPM (Revolutions per Minute)
-
Engine temperature
-
Oil pressure
-
Battery voltage
-
Engine hours
-
Fuel rate and load
-
Coolant and exhaust temperatures
All of these can be displayed in digital or analog-style gauges, customizable dashboards, or multi-panel layouts.
How to Set It Up
-
Install the A037 into your NMEA 2000 network as per the quick start guide.
-
Connect the A037’s USB or NMEA 2000 output to a compatible Wi-Fi router or multiplexer (such as a Quark-elec A034 or A026+).
-
Download and install NMEAremote© from the App Store or Google Play.
-
Open the app and configure it to detect and receive data from your onboard Wi-Fi network.
-
Begin customizing your dashboard with the available engine parameters!
Within minutes, your mobile device becomes a live engine monitor—giving you full visibility wherever you are on board.
Why Use NMEAremote© with the A037?
-
Flexible monitoring: Keep tabs on engine performance from anywhere on your vessel.
-
Highly customizable: Display exactly the information you care about, in the format you prefer.
-
Portable convenience: Use a tablet, phone, or even a cockpit-mounted device for remote monitoring.
-
Improved safety: Spot anomalies before they become problems—like rising temperature or oil pressure drops.
A Smarter Way to Monitor Your Engines
Pairing the A037 with the NMEAremote© app gives you powerful insight into your vessel’s heart—the engines. It’s ideal for single or dual-engine setups, and a must-have tool for skippers who want total awareness, anywhere onboard.
