trying to undestand, using hex decode cant get any info. "Binary Hex can't be converted to Text"

since i lost the information about imei i am guessing in some gps i had installed and also removing instead 15 numbers to 12, some worked like that.

so, how to decode that HEX ?

This is the most relevant page for your case:

Your device is using GT06 protocol, it looks like. And it's a binary protocol, so you can't convert it to text.

thank you i will try again the different ports.

do you recommend to insert the full imei? or cropped to 12 digits?

thanks

Specifically for GT06 you should use full IMEI. But in general once you find the correct port, you will see the identification in the log.
