GT06 - how to see Ignition on/off events

Quade dennis6 years ago

I'm seeing position messages fine on the GT06

I need to be able to see ignition on/off messages/events
Is traccar capable of doing this?

I've looked around on the forums and tried some different settings, but not sure if they are depreciated
here is what i've tried

<entry key='event.enable'>true</entry>
<entry key='gt06.alternative'>true</entry>

i need these ignition events to pass to my http listener which i have set up with


<entry key='forward.enable'>true</entry>
<entry key='forward.url'>http://127.0.0.1:8080/?id={uniqueId}&attributes={attributes}</entry>
    
<entry key='event.enable'>true</entry>
<entry key='event.forward.enable'>true</entry>
<entry key='event.forward.url'>http://127.0.0.1:8080</entry>

is what i'm trying to achieve possible ?
if not i can just monitor the state of ignition and generate my own event when i see it change...but will require some more work and would rather getting working with traccar if at all possible

thanks!

It's possible, but you would need to configure attribute copying because GT06-based devices don't report ignition value in every position.

Thanks Anton
I see can now see the ignition on/off events in the report section of the web app, but they dont appear in the right hand side events window

What I ideally need is for these events to forward
Do i need URL params on this for it to work?

<entry key='event.forward.url'>http://127.0.0.1:8080</entry>

according to this is a payload object
https://www.traccar.org/forums/topic/get-data-on-event-forward-url/

Is there any documentation where i can read more about this?

You don't need URL parameters. Data is sent in payload in JSON format. I believe it's array of events or a single event object:
