converters  are  required.  It  is  also  recommended  for  marine  electronics  engineers  or  technicians,  who 
require direct access to a vessel’s NMEA 2000 network data, for testing or investigative purposes.   

Please  refer  to  the  Conversion  List  chapter  for  details  of  supported  (and  non-supported) 
conversions.   

If you need a NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 small size converter, please choose 

QK-AS01 NMEA 0183 

to NMEA 2000 Mini Gateway

. 

 

2. Mounting 

The AS00 is aimed at the commercial, leisure and fishing boat markets.   

It is not waterproof so should be mounted in a dry place such as behind the instrument panel on a flat 
surface.

3. Connecting 

 
Disconnect all power sources before connecting your equipment! 
 

3.1.  Connecting to the NMEA 2000 network 

The AS00 is pre-fitted with a five-core screened cable for the NMEA 2000 connection, fitted with a male 
micro-fit connector. Simply connect the cable to the NMEA 2000 network backbone or using a T-piece 
connector. 

 

Figure 3: Pin NMEA 2000 male micro-fit connection 

The  main  communication  channel  of  an  NMEA  2000  network  is  an  NMEA  2000  backbone  to  which 
NMEA 2000 devices are connected. The NMEA 2000 backbone must be powered from a stable 12V DC
