Megastek MT60XPro does not report "online" / APP on phone does work

dedivo 12 hours ago

Hi,

after trying some things now I am out of ideas and need some help.

My Megastek MT60XPro does not report "online" at my Traccar server.

Let me give you some status befor you respond with "RTFM" ;-) :
The server is running on a RasPi4 in my network. It is running the following versions:

  • Linux raspberrypi 6.18.39+rpt-rpi-v8 (2026-06-19)
  • Traccar Server version is 6.15.3

The server is reachable out of my network and from the internet (tested via smartphone).
Due to the fact that my glas fiber provider just offers CGNAT IPv4, the internet connection from outside is only possible via IPv6.

TCP Ports 8082, 5055, 5024, 5001 are forwarded. HTTP access is possible (LAN IPv4 192.168.x.y / WAN IPv6).
DNS is set up via freedns / AAAA record.
On my smartphone there is the Traccar client installed. The Traccar client works with my server :-)
(Today I logged my way to the office and back with my phone).

Thus, the "basic" configuration seems to work.

I checked this:
https://www.traccar.org/devices/ --> Megastek MT60PRO megastek 5024

Now lets look into :
/opt/traccar/logs/tracker-server.log

I copied (and overwrote the numbers for privacy) two sections of the file.
Here, the app from the phone is coming in - that works perfect :-) :

Here, the MT60XPro is trying - intervall is 30s (which is reasonable)

Anyway, the server does not set the device to "online", even if I configured the ID (Kennung in German) to 123456789012345 which should be the IMEI.

And here I need some advice, how to continue....

Thank you a lot.

Do you have the protocol documentation for your device?

Hi Anton,

Unfortunately not :-( Only a PDF with the SMS commands (which IMHO is quite useless in our case).

Would it make sense to connect to one of the traccar demo servers that you could acess more data samples?
Or shall I try to ask the supplier? Not sure if the are willingly to share the information? Actually, the want to sell "their" solution....

Best regards

Chris
