Ulbotech - T301 Configuration
This page documents the public configuration context for using the Ulbotech T301 tracker with Plaspy. It explains the server settings Plaspy requires, describes the typical workflow to point a T301 at Plaspy, and highlights the prerequisites you should confirm before integrating a device into a Plaspy fleet. Use this guide to understand how the T301 interoperates with the Plaspy platform for real-time tracking and event reporting.
Plaspy uses shared server settings across supported devices and automatically detects the tracker protocol, so the T301 only needs to be pointed at the Plaspy endpoint and port. Exact manufacturer-side steps for changing the server, transport, or applying firmware updates can vary by firmware version, hardware revision, installation type, and vendor toolset, so always cross-check with Ulbotech documentation when required.
Configuration Overview
The goal of configuration is to prepare the T301 so it reliably sends GNSS fixes and event telemetry to Plaspy over the mobile data channel. Configuration focuses on setting the Plaspy endpoint, selecting the transport type if required, and validating that reports reach the platform.
- Point the device to the Plaspy server endpoint so location data reaches your account.
- Configure the transport and port settings that the device uses for data uplink.
- Verify connectivity over GPRS and ensure antennas and power are properly connected.
- Confirm device events such as ACC, SOS, analog AD input, and immobilizer reports are observable in Plaspy.
- Validate device visibility and telemetry in the Plaspy dashboard after configuration.
Plaspy Server Settings
When configuring the T301 for Plaspy, use the following public 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
Note that Plaspy uses the same port for all supported devices, and the platform automatically detects the protocol used by the tracker once it connects.
Typical Requirements Before Setup
- A powered and functional T301 with antennas and any required vehicle wiring in place.
- An active GSM data SIM provisioned for GPRS data if you plan to use mobile uplink.
- Access to the official Ulbotech configuration method or software (micro USB configuration tool or vendor-provided remote config).
- Knowledge of the Plaspy server settings d.plaspy.com or 54.85.159.138 and port 8888.
- Physical access to the device at least once for initial setup and verification.
- Optional: firmware version information to confirm compatibility with your chosen configuration workflow.
How This Tracker Connects to Plaspy
The T301 sends GNSS fixes and event telemetry over the cellular data connection (GPRS) to the shared Plaspy server endpoint and port. Once the device is configured to report to Plaspy, the platform ingests the data and makes location, status, and event information available in dashboards and reports.
- The tracker reports position fixes to d.plaspy.com (or 54.85.159.138) on port 8888.
- Transport can be set to UDP or TCP on the device; Plaspy accepts both.
- Plaspy automatically detects the protocol and parses the incoming tracker messages.
- ACC, SOS, analog AD input, and immobilizer events are transmitted as event messages to Plaspy.
- After successful connection, vehicle visibility, alerts, and telemetry appear in the Plaspy platform.
Common Configuration Workflow
- Access the official Ulbotech configuration method or software (for example, the micro USB configuration tool or the vendor’s remote configuration interface).
- Locate the server or reporting settings section in the device configuration tool.
- Enter the Plaspy server domain d.plaspy.com or the server IP 54.85.159.138 as the destination.
- Set the port value to 8888 for the device uplink.
- Choose UDP or TCP if the device requires a transport selection; either is accepted by Plaspy.
- Apply or save the configuration changes in the device tool and upload them to the tracker.
- Restart or power-cycle the T301 if the device or firmware requires a reboot to apply settings.
- Validate that the device reports to Plaspy by checking that the tracker appears and sends telemetry in the Plaspy interface.
Example Configuration Commands
The T301 model configuration provided here does not include public command strings. Exact configuration commands and the command syntax can vary by Ulbotech firmware and the vendor tools in use. Use the official Ulbotech configuration utility or the device’s supported remote command methods to set server and transport parameters. If you have a command set from the manufacturer, apply the server domain d.plaspy.com or IP 54.85.159.138 and port 8888, then verify connectivity.
Configuration Notes
- Plaspy uses the same port 8888 for all supported devices and automatically detects the tracker protocol after the first connection.
- Different firmware versions or hardware revisions of the T301 may expose configuration settings under different menus; consult Ulbotech documentation for version-specific instructions.
- Choosing UDP or TCP can depend on network conditions or installer preference; Plaspy accepts either transport.
- Configuration may be applied via the micro USB configuration tool or remote command channel depending on your T301 firmware and installation.
- Always confirm current command syntax and setup steps with Ulbotech documentation before applying changes.
Why Use Plaspy with This Configuration
Using the T301 with Plaspy provides a straightforward path to real-time vehicle location, event alerts, and operational telemetry for fleet managers and vehicle owners. Pointing the tracker to Plaspy lets dispatchers and administrators monitor position, ACC/ignition state, SOS events, and analog AD telemetry in a single platform designed for fleet oversight.
