GLONASSsoft - UMKa315 Configuration

This page documents the public configuration context for using the GLONASSsoft UMKa315 tracker with Plaspy. It explains the practical server settings and workflow you will use to point the device to Plaspy so telemetry, location, and events are routed to the platform. The guidance here is focused on publicly available integration facts and standard setup steps rather than vendor private tools.

Plaspy uses shared server settings across supported devices and automatically detects the tracker protocol once packets reach the platform. Exact steps on the device side can vary depending on firmware, hardware revision, installation type, and the manufacturer configuration tools you use. Always combine the guidance here with the UMKa315 manufacturer documentation and your installer procedures.

Configuration Overview​

The goal of configuring the UMKa315 for Plaspy is to prepare the device so it can reliably send compact telemetry packets using supported protocols and appear in the Plaspy platform for monitoring and reporting. This involves setting the Plaspy endpoint, selecting a transport, and verifying connectivity from the device to the platform.

  • Set the device server address to Plaspy and confirm the endpoint is reachable from the tracker.
  • Configure the tracker to use the shared Plaspy port and an appropriate transport method.
  • Ensure the device has a valid data connection and any required APN or SIM settings are in place.
  • Validate that position, inputs, and BLE or sensor data are visible in Plaspy after configuration.
  • Test and adjust reporting intervals and input mappings to match your operational needs.

Plaspy Server Settings​

  • Server domain d.plaspy.com
  • Server IP 54.85.159.138
  • Port 8888
  • Transport support for UDP or TCP
  • Plaspy automatically detects the tracker protocol once packets arrive at the platform

Note that all devices in Plaspy use the same port and the platform will attempt to detect whether the tracker is speaking Wialon Combine, EGTS, or another supported protocol.

Typical Requirements Before Setup​

  • Power the UMKa315 and ensure the device battery or vehicle power is stable for configuration and testing.
  • A valid active SIM card with a data plan and known APN settings for GPRS connectivity.
  • Physical or remote access to the device configuration method provided by GLONASSsoft such as the manufacturer software, SMS commands, or a configuration tool.
  • A Plaspy account or access to a Plaspy user who can confirm the device appears in the platform after setup.
  • Basic installation information including wiring for ignition, inputs, and outputs if you plan to map those signals in Plaspy.
  • If using BLE sensors or identification, have the BLE peripherals ready for pairing and testing.

How This Tracker Connects to Plaspy​

When configured for Plaspy, the UMKa315 sends packetized telemetry using supported binary protocols and targets the shared Plaspy server endpoint and port. Plaspy receives the packets, auto-detects the protocol, and decodes location and sensor data for real time display, alerts, and logging.

  • The device transmits Wialon Combine binary protocol or EGTS packets to d.plaspy.com on port 8888.
  • You can use either UDP or TCP transport on port 8888 depending on device configuration options and network reliability.
  • Plaspy automatically detects the tracker protocol so you do not need to select a protocol in the platform during initial connection.
  • GPS fixes, input state changes, and BLE sensor reads are forwarded to Plaspy for visibility and event generation.
  • Black box or offline logs stored on the device are uploaded to the server when connectivity is restored.

Common Configuration Workflow​

  1. Access the official GLONASSsoft configuration method or software for the UMKa315 per the manufacturer instructions.
  2. In the device server settings enter either the server domain d.plaspy.com or the server IP 54.85.159.138.
  3. Set the device port to 8888 which is the shared port used by Plaspy for all devices.
  4. Choose UDP or TCP transport if the tracker requires a transport selection.
  5. Enter any required APN or SIM data so the device can open a GPRS session to reach Plaspy.
  6. Apply or save the configuration and restart the device if the manufacturer workflow requires a reboot.
  7. Validate that the device reports to Plaspy by checking for incoming telemetry in your Plaspy account and confirming the tracker appears online.

Example Configuration Commands​

The UMKa315 can be configured using the official GLONASSsoft tools, SMS commands, or a vendor configuration utility. Exact commands and syntax vary by firmware version and manufacturer toolset. Consult the GLONASSsoft UMKa315 manual or the vendor configuration guide for the precise SMS strings or software steps required to set server address, transport, and APN values.

Configuration Notes​

  • Firmware and hardware revisions can affect configuration command syntax and available features; confirm your device firmware before applying commands.
  • UDP is often preferable for lower overhead telemetry, while TCP can provide session reliability in some network conditions; choose the transport that matches your network and operational needs.
  • Ensure APN settings are correct for the installed SIM to allow GPRS connections to d.plaspy.com or 54.85.159.138.
  • Plaspy uses the same port 8888 for all devices and automatically detects the tracker protocol after packets arrive, so focus configuration on the correct endpoint and transport.
  • Keep manufacturer documentation on hand for SMS options or software utilities that may simplify bulk configuration or remote reconfiguration.

Why Use Plaspy with This Configuration​

Using the UMKa315 with Plaspy gives you a compact tracker that sends efficient binary telemetry while minimizing data usage thanks to Wialon Combine and EGTS support. This configuration is well suited for fleet visibility, input and sensor mapping, BLE based identification workflows, and use cases where frequent updates and low data costs are important.
