Integration of Shenzhen Concox Information Technology Tracker GT06

Question

I am using OpenGTS for some time for my organization. I was using TK103 family tracker but now my company changed tracker and brought GT06 made by Shenzhen Concox Information Technology Co. Ltd. This tracker protocol is entirely different and I am unable to create its server. Can anyone help me for this tracker integration or let me know which already integrated tracker is somehow similar to this one. Just give me a tip and I will manage rest. I am copying some protocol for your reference.

5.1.3. Examples Examples of the login message packet sent by the terminal to the server and the response packet sent by the server to the terminal are as follows: (in the examples the terminal ID is 123456789012345. Example of data packet sent by the terminal 78 780 0D 01 01 23 45 67 89 01 23 45 00 01 8C DD 0D 0A

Example of response packet returned by the server

78 78 05 01 00 01 D9 DC 0D 0A

You can use Traccar server to track GT06 devices. It can be used as stand alone tracking system or if you prefer OpenGTS you can easily integrate two systems (use OpenGTS web interface and Traccar for device communication). Configuration file for integrating Traccar and OpenGTS can be found here.

the GT06 protocol is different from the tk103.

the 4th byte (0x01) indicates a login protocol call for tracker with IMEI 01 23 45 67 89 01 23 45 (remove first zero).

it should be answered and the socket kept open. you will receiva a 0x13 or 0x12 message (probably).

a 0x12 message has GPS location data.

i expect that you are not doing this blindfolded. if needed, refer to coding protocol manual. please note that some discrepancies may appear between concox and robustel units, even though both are variants of the original GreenTel GT06.

I have also posted a [question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43191500/integration-of-shenzhen-concox-information-technology-tracker-gt06-with-ec2) on it. Could you please answer that? – Saras Arya Apr 03 '17 at 18:10
@SarasArya you must configure your tracker with server info (IP and port), which can be done by sms or (depending on model) via usb with the appropriate sw (which not all trackers distributors make available) – tony gil Apr 06 '17 at 10:31
