Hi Bassam,
Here is the steps I followed

  1. you need to ensure the network connectivity between your server and your gps device (you can use https://www.traccar.org/troubleshooting/)
  2. In the log, I started to see message like:
2019-08-30 16:59:07  INFO: [e4f66e07] connected
2019-08-30 16:59:07  INFO: [e4f66e07: gps103 < 192.168.32.190] HEX: 000f383631353835303431333133353834

2019-08-30 16:59:44  INFO: [d3033d70: gps103 < 192.168.32.190] HEX: 000f383631353835303431333133353834

  1. From the HEX info and the info from your GPS provider, you need to find the unique identifier of your device
    In my case with Teltonika, I get the EMEI by removing "000f" leaving "383631353835303431333133353834" then removing the starting 3 in all pairs of numbers "38" -> 8 , "36" -> 6 ....... to end with 861585041313584

  2. in the web interface of traccar, I create a device with 861585041313584 as identifier

  3. with the help of Anton (to have the port to configure on my GPS), I get the port 5027

  4. On the web portal of my GPS device, on the Tab related to GPS service, I enter the ip address of my server and the port 5027 with protocol TCP

  5. the GPS appears on the map and in the list of devices, it is only online when the server receive an update from my GPS device ie most of the time it appears as offline but it's working fine

To more senior members, Don t hesitate to add or to correct anything wrong in my reply
