Even if you want to have some nice icons, it should be addedd manually to the virtual devices as well. In the past, all the virtual devices should be created manually, which was not a nice thing to do.
Traccar install update#
****** IMPORTANT UPDATE 13-05-2018 ****** vb.NET scriptingĬompared with the previous explanation, the vb.net script is now changed the a full automated process. Odometer (total distance done with that gps tracker).Event (based on Meitrack, for example if car is moving, or ignition status is changed).In the last column “attributes” additional gps device is visible (could be different per gps device), examples are: Here in every row, the GPS data will be stored, for every interval: Traccar config fileīecause in the traccar.xml config file, the option for Geocode is enabled, the address is visible too, based on latitude and longitude of the current location. In the end, Traccar will create all the MySQL tables like this:įor me the table “postitions” contains the most important data.
Traccar install software#
The Traccar software is running on my home automation server with several other web interfaces, so for this I’ve changed to port number to a free one.įor basic setup, installation and configuration see Traccar website. It’s not neccessary to keep those ports open on the server, while they are not used. In the section “Protocol Config”, I’ve disabled all ports for other GPS trackers (changed to comments with tags). Jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/traccar?allowMultiQueries=true&autoReconnect=true&useUnicode=yes&characterEncoding=UTF-8&sessionVariables=sql_mode=ANSI_QUOTES New entry (login credentials are removed) Jdbc:h2:C:\Program Files (x86)\Traccar\data\database In the Traccar installation folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Traccar\conf the traccar.xml file is changed for using my own MySQL database: In the at the bottom of the page, I’m using my own geofences and a lot more. I use only the server side for retrieving the gps data into a MySQL database. I don’t use the webinterface at all, or use the options from the webinterface, like Geofence, overspeed alarms, etc. A lot of gps trackers are supported and documentation and support is very good.
Therefor the Traccar GPS tracking software is now in use for several years. Mobile phone apps drained the battery too much. Both intervals are configured, so during driving the gps tracker will send more frequent an update, then when the car is not used.Ĭloud software was not good enough for me, or the API was not good enough to retrieve realtime data of gave data then I want to have. One for “ignition=ON” and the other when the “ignition=OFF”. Advantage of this MeiTrack GPS tracker is the setup for 2 time intervals. A pre-paid sim-only card is inserted and it uses in my case appr 3-4 MB a month (20.000 km a year). In earlier posts I’ve written about different GPS trackers, and even a small preview was shown about retrieving the Traccar data into Homeseer3. In a nutshell: After a few Xexun GPS trackers and even some clones, I’ve running for almost 2,5 years the Meitrack MVT340 GPS tracker with success running in my car.
