Q50 watch protocol

Sensei3 years ago

Hello,
I recently bought a Q50 chinese watch for my kid, which looks like it works alright when I test it with the "setracker" app. However, I did that because reading this forum and some other webpages I had come to the conclusion the watch could made to work with traccar, and that was my goal. I was indeed able to point it to the traccar server on tcp port 5093, and traccar does look like it is now receiving data on a more or less regular basis. But it looks like that data is useless. Is there something I'm doing wrong or some step I've missed to make this work ?

It looks like you've already found the answer, but I'll put the link here for others:

Indeed, thank you, the firmware provided in that link allowed me to get the watch to work with traccar. This is great :-)
