TopTen MT05 Trackers

Hi. Am new to the traccar platform, and tracking business in general. I have been trying to set up my MT05 tracker to use the traccer software but the HEX message being received is not getting decoded. Part of my server logs:

Could anyone know why it is not getting decoded?

You are using wrong port.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Which port is the correct one to use? I've tried 5001 but I get a string indx out of bounds exception.

I would recommend to start here:

I have read a previous forum post where you said that the timezone has to be UTC. I changed it to UTC but I get the same error. Should I change it to match my server's timezone?
