AOVX - EB100 Protocol

This page covers the public protocol context for using the AOVX EB100 with Plaspy. The EB100 is described as a compact Bluetooth Low Energy environmental sensor tag, and this protocol page explains how that device communication fits into a Plaspy deployment in clear, public terms.

Plaspy uses shared connection settings across supported devices and automatically detects the tracker protocol. In practice, that means the same Plaspy endpoint can accept devices configured for the platform, while the exact reporting behavior can still vary according to firmware version, hardware revision, and the manufacturer’s implementation details.

Protocol Overview​

The EB100 protocol is part of the communication layer that allows the device to report telemetry into Plaspy through a compatible forwarder. For this model, the key point is not a complex public packet specification, but the ability of the device to exchange usable tracking and sensor data in a way that Plaspy can interpret.

  • Enables the EB100 to communicate environmental telemetry through a supported Plaspy connection path
  • Supports integration into monitoring workflows where the device data is forwarded to Plaspy
  • Helps identify the device’s reporting behavior so its data can be associated with the correct tracker record
  • Allows sensor updates to be delivered in a format that Plaspy can process for visibility and alerts
  • Provides the communication basis for using the EB100 in cold chain, warehouse, and inventory scenarios
  • Works as part of a broader device integration model rather than a standalone user interface

How Plaspy Detects the Protocol​

Plaspy is designed to work with a shared device endpoint and to automatically detect the tracker protocol when the device connects and begins reporting. For the EB100, this means users typically configure the device to send data to Plaspy and let the platform handle protocol recognition without manual protocol selection.

  • Uses the same Plaspy endpoint for supported devices rather than requiring a different destination for each tracker
  • Automatically detects the tracker protocol once the device starts communicating
  • Reduces setup complexity because protocol selection is not usually needed inside Plaspy
  • Helps the platform associate incoming data with the correct device communication pattern
  • Supports a more streamlined onboarding process for compatible trackers and forwarding devices
  • Keeps the user focus on correct device configuration and reliable data reporting

Transport and Connection Context​

The EB100 may be configured to communicate over UDP or TCP on port 8888, depending on device support and the chosen deployment setup. For Plaspy, supported devices point to the shared service domain d.plaspy.com or to the server IP 54.85.159.138, which are public connection references used for device reporting.

  • The device may use UDP or TCP on port 8888
  • Plaspy uses the same port for all supported devices
  • The shared service domain is d.plaspy.com
  • The public server IP is 54.85.159.138
  • The connection target can be configured according to the device’s supported transport mode
  • Correct network reachability is important so the EB100 can deliver data to Plaspy consistently

Protocol Compatibility Notes​

  • Compatibility can vary by firmware version, even within the same model family
  • Hardware revisions may influence how the device reports data or connects to the platform
  • Transport choice matters, since the EB100 may support UDP or TCP depending on configuration
  • Manufacturer implementation details can affect how data is forwarded through gateways or smartphones
  • Proper endpoint configuration is essential for the device to communicate with Plaspy successfully
  • Official manufacturer documentation should be reviewed for the latest model-specific guidance
  • When in doubt, validate behavior against the current AOVX documentation before deployment

Why Protocol Understanding Matters​

Understanding the communication protocol helps ensure that the EB100 is configured correctly, reports consistently, and remains easy to maintain in Plaspy over time. Even when Plaspy automatically detects the protocol, knowing the connection context helps teams avoid setup issues and troubleshoot reporting problems faster.

  • Improves initial setup by aligning the device with the correct reporting path
  • Makes it easier to confirm that telemetry is reaching Plaspy as expected
  • Helps diagnose connectivity issues related to transport, endpoint, or device configuration
  • Supports more reliable long-term monitoring across gateways, smartphones, and backend reporting
  • Provides a clearer basis for validating firmware-related differences during rollouts
  • Helps teams maintain consistent environmental visibility in operational workflows

Why Use Plaspy with This Protocol​

Using the AOVX EB100 with Plaspy can be valuable for organizations that need environmental visibility alongside operational oversight. The device’s protocol context supports structured reporting into Plaspy, making it easier to combine sensor data with tracking workflows for storage, transport, and asset monitoring.

With Plaspy, the EB100 can fit into a broader monitoring strategy that brings together field data, alerts, and historical records in one place.
