Eelink protocol

Protocol used by GPS tracking devices manufactured by Shenzhen Eelink Communication Technology Co Ltd headquartered in China.
flespi parses the Eelink protocol messages into a JSON object with the fields listed below in the Parameters tab.

To connect your tracker using the Eelink protocol, you need to have an eelink channel created first.

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

Send the SMS with the following command to the tracker's phone number (don't forget to replace Xs with appropriate numbers):

SERVER,"tcp://193.193.XX.XX:XXXXX"#

Then create a device instance for your tracker and use a 15-character IMEI (usually specified on the tracker casing) in the ident field.

Use the Toolbox tab on the device screen to check if the messages are coming.
