Meiligao Protocol

alaa8 years ago

Hi,
I have a GPS tracking device(fgvt-310) that use meiligao protocol.

I searched over the internet but i only found this pdf called "meiligao gprs communication protocol" and it just explains the commands sent between device and server.

Is there any information about this protocol, what is the difference between it and http protocol for example.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks, but i already have this documentation for meiligao protocol, is this all the information about this protocol?

I am searching about how it works not it's commands, and what is the difference between it and http protocol.

Thanks.

It works on top of TCP protocol. Not sure what you mean by "how it works". Protocol defines format for messages from device to server and back.

As for difference with HTTP, Meiligao protocol is designed for specifically and only for GPS tracking, HTTP on the other hand is more generic protocol to transfer any data, but it doesn't define format for message content.

Thanks that is what i was looking for.

You actually answered me on "how it works", that is Meiligao protocol defines format for message content, and it is designed only for GPS tracking.

Thanks again.
