Hi TrackerBr
The problem is installer application is not detecting my helios device. I'm using this serial cable to connect Helios GPS device to PC-https://www.aliexpress.com/item/6pin-FTDI-FT232RL-USB-to-Serial-adapter-module-USB-TO-TTL-RS232-Cable/2043802186.html
If installer application detects helios device then I can change parameter like server and port. I tried with two different serial cables but not helped.
Installer application version- 2017.08.20
Device- Helios Adv Plus 24 pin http://wiki.starcomsystems.com/wiki/index.php/Helios#Types_and_differences

Hello Andi

The connection is simple as your usb converter adapter follows the connection to rss232 from Helios ... do you have the H adv 24-pin is this?

Your USB Adapter --- RS232 Helios Connector
   TXD Green Wire --- Blue / Black RXD
    RXD White Wire --- Orange / Blue TXD
    GND Black Wire --- GND Black Wire

If you can not, tell me which port will use and ip or pass the Helios id that I change from here, but let me know your email that I pass the installer settings.

Hi Yasir,

Do you want to use Helios on Traccar?

Can you help in integration of Helios in Traccar?

Please tell exact problem you are facing?

Please talk to TrackerBr once about it. He has also lot of knowledge about it.

Andi7 years ago

Hi Anton,

I have solved the problem and now I can change server and port of my Helios device.

Currently Helios is not a supported device on Traccar. And I want to use on Traccar.
It will be vary grateful if you can add Starcom Helios on Traccar.

Send an email to support address to discuss it.

Hi Anton, how are you?

I helped Andi and now he can access his device via cable to exchange ip and port.

I'm counting on the contribution of Andi and Yasir and believe they want to use the helios in the trailing as well as US, which is integrated in the traction.

could check the theme as we had talked about earlier.

I believe that what you have is enough for integration.
