To connect your tracker using the Cantrack protocol, you need to have a cantrack channel created first.

Point your tracker to the channel's domain name:port via SMS or configuration tool provided by the vendor.

Then create a device instance for your tracker and use a Serial Number without leading zeroes in the ident field.

Use the Logs & Messages tab on the device screen to check if the messages are coming.
