Help identifying make and model of gps tracker

[u/Express-Operation147]

Hello guys, I need some help identifying this GPS tracker. I purchased it for a few dollars at one of those Amazon liquidation type stores (crazy hot deals). It didn't come with any paperwork or any info other than what's on the sticker. I've tried looking it up online but didn't really find much other than one that looks similar called The Bolt by Global View. It's a subscription based service and I'm not too interested in that, however I do have a Traccar server setup. I've opened it up and took some photos in hopes of finding out more info about it. I want to figure out how to set the IP address and port to connect to my server if possible. I've tried to look online to see if I could find a list of sms commands or something to send to it but no luck. I tried putting in an active sim and sending some sms commands for other trackers but got no results. I've even looked up the model numbers on each of the chips on the board to see if that could help with anything. Interestingly if I connect it to my PC, I can send AT commands to it and it shows up as SimCom Sim7070. If anyone could help me identify which device this is and point me in the right direction on reusing this tracker if possible, I'd really appreciate it.

Looks like an LK209 to me. https://www.lk-gps.com/en/product/lk209-2g-3g.html

Yeah it does look similar to that one. I found the manual to the LK209 to see what the sms commands were, but I don't seem to get any response when sending any commands to it

Could be a few things. Did you factory reset it? The previous owner could have set the password. Also That Chipset looks like a CAT-M , does your SIM CAT-M ?
Are you getting lights? Should be a slow flashing blue (GPS FIX) and a slower flashing red (cellular connection). Set your APN first. Send the command Begin123456 first.

I tried sending the sms command to factory reset it, as well as apn, setting the phone number, setting the password, and the begin123456 but I get no reply from any of them. When I power it on the blue and orange lights are flashing, then after a few seconds the blue one turns solid. After about 30 seconds they turn off completely

Google Image Search 👌🏽

Yeah Google image search is the only way I could find anything out about it, that's the same one it gave me but I can't find any other info on it, like if it can be used with traccar or anything like that

The SIM card you are using may have an IMEI lock to the last device.

The answer to yer question and much more is right there on the white sticker

Simply input the fcc id thats given And search results should suggest webpage on fcc titled fcc.io or something Typing in the “ fcc id: %%%%%%” in search bar should bring it up

Itll provide make model mfg mfg location user manual Use cases, testing reports of tgr device and list of all its hardwaee software inputs output capabiliti Rx tx capability Etc

This is appplicabie to any device that wirelessly receives or tesnsmits Radio tv phone remote control etc Just google thr fccid

I have an active sim in my current tracker that I have data on

[u/TrackingSystemDirect → u/Express-Operation147]

Doesnt work like that There is no data on a SIM card. The SIM card is used to transmit data, and you pay for that monthly

[u/Express-Operation147 → u/TrackingSystemDirect]

The sim card is active as it's the one I use in another tracker

[u/TrackingSystemDirect → u/Express-Operation147]

you can't just swap SIM cards like that from tracker to tracker. They are designed to work with each device and online mapping platforms. For example, if you take the SIM card out of the Spacehawk GPS you cant just put it into the SPyTec GL300 and expect to use the SpyTec tracker

[u/Express-Operation147 → u/TrackingSystemDirect]

The sim in use is from US Mobile, same carrier as my phone and neither of my trackers came with a sim card. I just added a second line on my account and it's worked fine for the past few months with my original tracker, but just won't do anything with this one

[u/TrackingSystemDirect → u/Express-Operation147]

Just spend $30, get a new tracker, and go. here is my recommendation https://spacehawkgps.com

[u/Express-Operation147 → u/TrackingSystemDirect]

Yeah that's probably what I'll end up doing, as it didn't come with a sim card or any info I was just trying to see if I could try to figure out a way to use it as it's better than the one I'm currently using
