quecklink gl505 protocol

[bizkit1]

Hello. I am trying to connect a asset tracking device, quecklink gl505 device using the gl200 protocol. I can see device connecting, but the hex data does not contain lat/long and date is 1970-01-01. i think that there is another protocol for the gl505. I am attaching the protocol description, maybe someone who knows can implement it. The protocol is the same for models: GL505 and GL500.

GL50X @Track Air Interface Protocol R3.00.pdf

It's already supported. If you get year 1970, it most likely means that your device doesn't send any valid GPS data. Possibly it doesn't have a GPS fix.

yep, that is right, after it got position worked, but woul be nice if it can show the battery level param. For gl300 i can see battery level, but for gl505 it doesn't show. For example in traccar interface when the device sends data i can see Type=STR.

decoding means:

+RESP:GTSTR,400300,862365030142289,GL500,0,0,0,39.4,**93**,1,0.3,17,105.8,25.944240,44.403736,20170529140530,0226,0001,56C2,7084,,,,20170529160530,02DA$

where 93 is bettery level

Traccar doesn't fully support STR message type. Send me an email if you need help with adding it.

Hi @tananaev I'm getting these reports from my GL505 tracker.

+RESP:GTCTN,400300,862365030030500,DEMO,0,1,0,24.1,75,0,0.6,0,108.6,-58.800959,-27.475868,20170721215947,0722,0310,0D66,F877,,,,20170721190746,00AB$>

I have integrated traccar with my already working GTS Enterprise server, and in logs im getting these messages:

2017-07-21 22:18:13 DEBUG: [AC41B646: 5004 < 170.51.99.146] HEX: 2b524553503a475443544e2c3430303330302c3836323336353033303033303530302c44454d4f2c302c312c302c32342e312c37352c302c302e362c302c3130382e362c2d35382e3830303935392c2d32372e3437353836382c32303137303732313231353934372c303732322c303331302c304436362c463837372c2c2c2c32303137303732313139303734362c3030414224

Is there any chance to decode the battery level (75%) from the string and write that value into GTS database?
This is my very first time with Queclink, so probably I have wrong settings.
I really appreciate your cooperation.

PS: in traccar config file I have these settings, probably they are related:

<entry key='database.insertPosition'>
     START TRANSACTION;
         UPDATE Device SET lastValidLatitude = :latitude, lastValidLongitude = :longitude, lastGPSTimestamp = UNIX_TIMESTAMP(:fixTime), lastUpdateTime = UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW()) WHERE imeiNumber = SUBSTRING(CAST(:deviceId AS CHAR(32)),
         SELECT @accountID := accountID, @deviceID := deviceID FROM Device WHERE imeiNumber = SUBSTRING(CAST(:deviceId AS CHAR(32)), 2);
         INSERT INTO EventData (accountID, deviceID, timestamp, statusCode, latitude, longitude, speedKPH, heading, altitude, rawData, creationTime, address)
         VALUES (@accountID, @deviceID, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(:fixTime), 0, :latitude, :longitude, :speed * 1.852, :course, :altitude, '', UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW()), :address);
     COMMIT;
</entry>

Error message indicates that you have a duplicate entry in the database.

It's possible to include additional information, but you would have to modify SQL queries.

[lantracking]

How do you think I can insert the battery level value from traccar to SQL? Any clue?
Honestly having that value, its a great thing as GL505 is an asset tracker non battery powered.

[tananaev]

Obviously you need to know SQL language well enough. Also, you can search on forum and github. There were some related discussions before.

[lantracking]

@tananaev thank you so much for replying so quick.
I was checking the forum, and maybe using forwarder to GPRMC is the key to success.
Can you help me with some hints about extracting battery level and passing it to gprmc forwarder url?

[tananaev]

I don't think it's possible with GPRMC to pass any additional information. Anyway, this is completely off-topic now. If you want to discuss OpenGTS integration, you should find or create another thread.

I have a query, I had installed the Driver in my laptop. Added the Server FTP path and allowed the port in the server. But problem is no file is generated in the provided FTP. Am tried to search a lot but no where I find any sort of files with GPS data.

Am using GL50X @track Air Interface Protocol R3.00

Anyone please guide me!

[tananaev]

@daipayan-matrix, do you really think it's appropriate to spam like this? Please remove all of your comments except for one. Otherwise I would have to ban you from this repository.

[daipayan-matrix]

Okay, I will remove comments from other places. I never used Github, this is my first time. So dnt know the rules.
Accept my sincere apologies and if possible please try to guide me.
Am using this application - http://www.queclink.com/sites/default/files/PL2303_Prolific_DriverInstaller_v1_9_0.zip

[tananaev]

Most Queclink devices should be supported. If not, please create a new ticket.
