For anyone else attempting to get the TK 905 to work, ensure that you read the documentation; as it states in https://www.traccar.org/clones/, a common issue is that the device will send status information but no position.
Remedied (as per documentation) by sending:
fix060s***n123456
... where 123456 should be replaced by your password.
On my TK 905, issuing this command temporarily fixes the problem in that positional information is sent, but only for 5 or 6 positions.
Also, the device does not reply (as usual) to this command when asterisks are used; however, when I send a command that specifies the number of times for the fix, such as
fix060s005n123456
the device does reply.
Sending upload123456 60 works too, but again only for 5 or 6 updates.
I'll post in a different thread and ask for help as to how to get permanent updates from this device.
How did this end up going? Im bringing a TK905D into my own server, using 5023 (5093 displays a length error in the logs).
2022-02-05 07:47:29 WARN: [d05042f3] error - begin 21, end 24, length 4 - StringIndexOutOfBoundsException (... < Gps103ProtocolDecoder:413 < ExtendedObjectDecoder:52 < ... < WrapperContext:102 < ...)
Using 5023, displays as functioning and readable, however, it does not display in the Traccar Server GUI. Ive read previous posts mentioning it wont display if the device isnt moving or updating a GPS Location, however, ive tested this. It hits the Server, decode the log to view Lat/Long changing.
Any thoughts?
