AOVX - VL100L Configuration

This page covers the public configuration context for using the AOVX VL100L with Plaspy. The VL100L is described as a compact, low-cost GPS tracker that is compatible with Plaspy through GT06 protocol support, making it suitable for fleet tracking, basic insurance monitoring, and vehicle surveillance workflows.

Plaspy uses shared server settings across supported devices and automatically detects the tracker protocol, so the platform can identify the VL100L without requiring a separate per-model server profile. Even so, the exact manufacturer-side setup process can vary depending on firmware, hardware revision, installation type, and the tools provided by AOVX.

Configuration Overview​

To prepare the AOVX VL100L for Plaspy, the tracker must be pointed to the Plaspy server endpoint, assigned the correct port, and placed into the communication mode used by the device. The public configuration flow for this model also includes APN setup, an update interval, and a GPRS activation step.

  • Configure the tracker so it can reach the Plaspy server endpoint.
  • Use the shared Plaspy port so the device sends data to the correct service.
  • Confirm the tracker is using a supported transport option for the selected setup.
  • Set the reporting interval so location updates arrive at a usable frequency.
  • Verify the configuration after saving so the device can be validated in Plaspy.
  • Review the tracker status to confirm the device is operating as expected.

Plaspy Server Settings​

  • Server domain d.plaspy.com
  • Server IP 54.85.159.138
  • Port 8888
  • Transport support for UDP or TCP on port 8888
  • Automatic protocol detection in Plaspy
  • All supported devices in Plaspy use the same port, which simplifies deployment and server management

Typical Requirements Before Setup​

  • Access to the official AOVX configuration method or SMS command workflow for the device
  • A powered and ready tracker with the installation completed or staged for configuration
  • A valid carrier APN value for the mobile service used by the tracker
  • Basic knowledge of whether the installation will use UDP or TCP if transport selection is required
  • A way to save, apply, or verify configuration changes after sending commands
  • The official manufacturer documentation available for the latest firmware-specific behavior

How This Tracker Connects to Plaspy​

The VL100L is configured to send its tracking data to the shared Plaspy server endpoint, where Plaspy automatically recognizes the protocol used by the tracker. Once the device is pointed to d.plaspy.com or 54.85.159.138 on port 8888, it can begin communicating with the platform using the selected transport method.

  • The tracker reports to the shared Plaspy endpoint rather than a model-specific address.
  • Port 8888 is used for this model, matching the standard Plaspy device port.
  • UDP or TCP may be used if the device or installer workflow requires transport selection.
  • Plaspy automatically detects the tracker protocol, which reduces manual platform-side setup.
  • After configuration is saved, the device should appear in Plaspy when it begins transmitting correctly.
  • Status and connectivity checks help confirm that reporting is active and stable.

Common Configuration Workflow​

  1. Open the official AOVX configuration method, such as the manufacturer SMS command workflow or vendor tool provided for the device.
  2. Enter the carrier APN required for the tracker to access the mobile network.
  3. Set the GPRS server to d.plaspy.com or, if needed, the Plaspy server IP 54.85.159.138.
  4. Set the server port to 8888.
  5. Choose UDP or TCP if the tracker firmware or configuration tool requires a transport selection.
  6. Apply or save the configuration so the device stores the new server settings.
  7. Restart the device if the manufacturer workflow requires it for the changes to take effect.
  8. Validate that the tracker is reporting to Plaspy and review the device status after it reconnects.

Example Configuration Commands​

The VL100L public setup flow includes SMS commands for APN, server, timer, and GPRS mode configuration. The placeholders in the APN command represent carrier-specific values provided by the mobile operator.

  • Configure the carrier APN
APN,{{apn}}#
  • Configure the carrier APN with optional username and password when required by the operator
APN,{{apn}},{{apnu}},{{apnp}}#
  • Set the GPRS server to Plaspy
SERVER,1,d.plaspy.com,8888,0#
  • Set the update interval
TIMER,60,60#
  • Switch the tracker to GPRS mode
GPRSON,1#
  • Check the current configuration
PARAM#
  • Check tracker status
STATUS#

Configuration Notes​

  • The public command flow provided for this model is SMS based, so installation teams should follow the manufacturer workflow carefully.
  • APN values are carrier specific, and some networks may require APN username and password fields.
  • If the device or firmware supports transport choice, UDP or TCP can be used with the same Plaspy port 8888.
  • Plaspy automatically detects the tracker protocol, which helps simplify onboarding once the device is pointed to the shared server.
  • Firmware versions and regional device variants can affect the exact configuration experience, so official documentation remains the best reference point.

Why Use Plaspy with This Configuration​

Using the AOVX VL100L with Plaspy helps centralize vehicle visibility in one platform while keeping setup straightforward. Once the tracker is directed to the shared Plaspy server and configured to report at the desired interval, the platform can receive device data, support operational monitoring, and present a cleaner view of fleet activity.

This combination is especially practical for organizations that want a simple GPS tracking workflow without custom server planning for each device model.
