The A035 Windows configuration tool can be used to setup the port routing, sentence filtering, NMEA
baud rates, SD card data saving frequency, and WiFi settings for the A035. It can also be used to
monitor and send NMEA sentences through the USB port. The configuration tool must be used on a
windows PC (or a Mac using BootCamp or other Windows simulating software) while the A035 is
connected via USB cable.
The configuration tool cannot access the A035 via WiFi. And it will not function while another program is
using the A035. Please close all applications using the A035 when using the configuration tool.
When the A035 is connected to a Windows PC and powered up, the
‘Connected’ message will be
shown on the status bar at the bottom of the configuration software window. The software version is
also shown on the status bar. Once settings have been changed the user must click on the
‘config’
button to save the new settings to the device
and then click ‘disconnect’. Please re-power the A035 to
activate the new settings. The unit is now ready for use.
