Preferred Traccar Protocol

Hi Everyone,

I am new to the group and new to the GPS tracking industry. I am currently working on sourcing a 4G GPS tracker from China and need your help. I have reviewed the list of communication protocols from the Traccar list i.e. TK 103 but want to ask based on your experience

  1. Are there any protocol you prefer or works best and why?
  2. Are there any protocol not to consider and why?

For the 2G product we used TK 103 and this has worked out very well but am curious is there is another protocol that maybe easier and more modern to use.

Thanks for your time.

You have to use the Protocol that is imbedded in the Tracker's Firmware that it uses to communicate with the Tracking Server - you don't get a choice. A lot of the Chinese stuff uses the 'watch' Protocol.
