The BCE / Xirgo protocol

The protocol of Baltic Car Equipment devices, today part of <strong>Xirgo Global</strong>, one of the largest telematics suppliers in the Baltic countries. It targets heavy vehicles: reading the vehicle's computer and downloading the tachograph.

It is spoken by the FM series — FM Light, FM Plus — and the Xirgo XT2400 and XT2450. If you inherit devices marked BCE, they belong to this same family.

Which port it comes in onOur server listens for the BCE / Xirgo protocol on port 6080. That is the port you set on the device, together with the server address. Point it somewhere else and the data still leaves, but the server cannot read it.
Careful with what other sites tell youThe <strong>tachograph is not just another data field</strong>: you have to know how to read and present it. Without somebody who masters it, this brand will generate support you can't close. And after the change of ownership, confirm spares before committing to an expansion.

Build the configuration command

We do not have this protocol's commands yetWe would rather tell you than make them up. We only publish the ones we have checked against the manufacturer's manual or against a real device. If you have them confirmed, send them to us and we will add them.

Devices that use it

Receive this protocol on your own platform

No server to set up and nothing to program: the platform already reads this protocol. You add the brand and the domain.

Frequently asked questions

Are BCE and Xirgo the same?

Baltic Car Equipment is today part of Xirgo Global. If you inherit devices marked BCE, they belong to that same family.

Can it download the tachograph?

Devices in this family cater for it. But you have to know how to read and present it: don't promise it without somebody who does.

I have old BCE devices — do they still work?

The protocol is still handled. Check the network generation, because much of that installed base dates from the 2G era.
