Configure your device to report to GpsGate

Configure your tracker

Tracker manufacturers use different methods to configure GPS trackers. 

Method 1: via configuration tool

Most major tracker manufacturers offer a configuration tool to facilitate the task of setting up a tracker for the first time.

• Read how to configure a Teltonika tracker.
• Read how to configure a Queclink tracker.
• Read other tracker manufacturers' configurations.

Method 2: Using SMS commands

If your tracker manufacturer cannot provide you with a tracker configuration tool, it is very likely your tracker is configurable via SMS commands.

You can send commands to your trackers using your mobile phone or the GpsGate platform.

To send SMS from GpsGate, you can use the terminal window or create template commands that can be used at any time.

You can configure certain trackers, like Teltonika, via SMS directly from the tracker registration page. For guidance, refer to the Adding-your-first-asset-using-the-Guide 

Which IP/Hostname and port should I configure my trackers to report to?

You can see which IP/Hostname and port you have to configure your tracker to in the Add an asset guide:

Add custom asset:

When you click on 'Custom Asset' in the Asset panel to add a new custom asset, the 'New User' window opens. In the 'Configure your tracker' section of this window, you can view the Hostname/IP and the Port you have to configure your tracker to.

+ Asset:

When you click on "+Asset" in the Asset panel and complete the required information, a final window will appear displaying the Hostname/IP and Port you have to configure your tracker to.
