Hi,
You can add the command "monitor" to enable the microphone.
After that, the tracker will answer the call. To disable it, send "tracker".
Also the sensitivity of the shock sensor can be configured with "sensitivity n" (n in range of 1 to 3).
"loosing" to send an alert if the alimentation is unplugged.
Geo-fence configuration with "stockade 3.049529E,50.639796N;3.051589E,50.638745N" (long et latitute reversed).
All sos commands are working but without the button, it's quite worthless to configure it.

We can also define another IP address to send regularly the data to a private server for exemple with "adminip IP PORT"
And configure the time between each upload "upload 10"

Can you think about escaping asterisks in the markdown please ? With a backslash before each one.
Thanks a lot.

Coucou de Lille aussi !

Good day, how can I turn off SMS notifications about the accelerometer triggering and leave only Push notifications?

Hi @ELDiablO59152, can you confirm that these commands work with TK915 ? I can't check because mine is out of service.

Hi @gmarfjan, yes it's working with mine.

meu tkstar915 não funciona mais. iniciei com um chip da tim, ele funcionou normalmente nos primeiros dias e agora não envia mais os comandos solicitados. não retorna o SMS. O led de rede não pisca, fica ligado direto.

Only 1 admin number can be used at a time. You must delete the current admin number to add another.

yeah thought so, comment in table says up to 5 numbers though. i also found that during calling in monitor mode, the online tracking and sms do not function until hanging up. (TK915-4G)

Hi, I am just setting up my 24th tracker, my 2nd 4G one (in the UK), when sending "gprs123456 I get the response "The non-privileged number cannot be set", any advice would be appreciated as this response is new to me. Thanks :)

Hello, has anyone already configured a server to receive tkstar frames? I have a nodejs/express app that should retrieve the frames and save them in a file, but it is impossible to retrieve the frames correctly.

To do this, I sent the following sms: adminip123456 {your_public_ip} {port}, and received an adminip ok reply.

When I start my server I receive an incoming communication but the frames don't have the desired format.

If anyone has experienced this problem, I'd like to thank them in advance for their help.

I don't have this device anymore but I had it working on a traccar server I set up using port 5093. AFAIK, the device uses 'watch' protocol.
https://www.traccar.org/devices/
https://www.traccar.org/protocols/
Some java decode/encode/test stuff here.

Hope it is of some help!

Thanks for your reply! After searching a bit (thanks to the leads you provided) I have the impression that my tk-905 uses another protocol, the Huabao protocol.

Thanks again for your reply, which has given me some ideas for further research.

Hi I have two tk918's I am trying to add them on one email account to use on mytkstar or winnes. When I try to add one of them that works fine. If I then try to add the second one it says "no permission" I've tried RESET123456 on it but to no avail. I can log in to both separately fine using the login by ID. Just not log in by username with my account email. I've tried the winnes app and mytkstar app. Any ideas? Kind regards Jason.

Hello,
I have a problem with all my devices, specifically with the battery. My battery is 10,000 mAh, but it can't last more than a week! Why?

I am using the Tk913 GPS tracker. My problem is when the device start to move after long stay, it’s take too long to be showed in applications and that makes it difficult to followed. Also If it’s possible I need to set the device in such way when stops moving to go (OFFLINE). And to wake up by shock’’, and going (ONLINE) when it’s starts to move again’’ to saving battery. Because as default it’s always “ONLINE” and consumes a lot of battery! I send sms command (Sleep123456 shock) thru the mytkstar platform. On the check command section I get the following:

Hi, I have a tk405 4g, and I can't get the adminip command to work. The tkstar website gives me an error and it doesn't respond to me via SMS. When I check with the check****** command, the default configuration appears. Does anyone know what could be happening? Do I need any extra configuration or do I need to disable something for the adminip command to work?
Thanks a lot.

@carlosbarahona Did you try to include your current password in the command?
Something like adminip123456 {your_public_ip} {port}
