hss9 years ago

Dear Antonov,

Please receive my greetings from Santiago, Chile in South America.

I need your kindly help.

I have connected a new GPS tracker to my Traccar server v3.2.

GPS Manufacturing Date: 2006 year
The GPS brand was: Sunlink MSolutions
The GPS model: Kenji KJ-8501

The data is arriving OK to the server but I am getting some errors:

The web log is below:

I have decoded the HEX code using your web tool:

Could you help me to find the protocol?

It looks like this protocol is not supported yet. I need protocol documentation to implement it.

Dear Antonov,

I just sent attached the protocol of Kenji GPS Tracker to your e-mail.

Please let me know if you could add it to the Traccar Server soon.

Best Regards,

With a lot of help from Anton, the kenji protocol was successfully added to the Traccar v3.2 , compiled from source code using Netbeans IDE v8.1.
