The PT502 protocol

The protocol of PT devices — PT-502, PT-30 — Chinese low-to-mid range trackers aimed at vehicles and small fleets.

They are configured by text message, with the APN and the server address. They report position, status and, depending on the model, sensor inputs.

Which port it comes in onOur server listens for the PT502 protocol on port 6017. 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 youMany of these devices come from manufacturers that <strong>also sell their own platform</strong>. Buy the hardware and keep it reporting to yours: if the customer logs into the manufacturer's platform, the customer belongs to the manufacturer, not to you.

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.

Which devices speak the PT502 protocol?

The PT-502 and PT-30, Chinese low-to-mid range trackers for vehicles and small fleets.

The manufacturer also offers me its platform — should I take it?

Does it support sensors?

Depending on the model. Ask for the exact part number's datasheet before promising anything.
