Enfora Protocol (classic GPRMC-in-binary, port 5008)

Classic Enfora on Traccar 5008 TCP+UDP: length-framed blob, scan 15-digit IMEI, embedded GPRMC sentence.

Connect your tracker

Enter the tracker IMEI first, then verify your email and continue setup.

Quick answers

Stock Traccar port?

5008 TCP and UDP — classic low port.

How is the device identified?

Scanner finds 15 consecutive ASCII digits as IMEI.

Position sentence?

Embedded GPRMC inside the length-framed blob.

Enfora is a classic early Traccar dialect on stock port 5008 (TCP and UDP). EnforaProtocol uses LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder; EnforaProtocolDecoder scans the buffer for a 15-digit IMEI, then finds an embedded GPRMC sentence (pattern starts at GPRMC, without requiring a leading $) and parses A/V lat/lon/speed/course/date. An encoder class exists in tree.

Classic low port, NMEA-inside-binary

Distinct from ExtremTrac’s line $GPRMC,<id>,… on 5126 and from Cradlepoint’s LTE CSV on 5118 — Enfora identity is IMEI-scan + embedded GPRMC on 5008.

Setup walkthrough

  1. 1

    Confirm Enfora / GPRMC-in-frame firmware

    Pure line $GPRMC,id units may be ExtremTrac 5126 instead.

  2. 2

    Aim at classic port 5008

    Host + 5008; choose TCP or UDP to match firmware.

  3. 3

    Capture IMEI digits in the blob

    15 ASCII digits must appear before GPRMC for session bind.

  4. 4

    Locate GPRMC substring

    Decoder searches for GPRMC even without a leading $.

Common troubleshooting

No IMEI digits in payload

Bind fails before GPRMC parse — ensure 15 ASCII digits are present.

Sent to ExtremTrac 5126

Different framing: ExtremTrac is line text $GPRMC,id; Enfora is length-framed on 5008.

Assuming encoder cut works
