Quick answers

Stock Traccar port?

TCP 5034.

Iridium frames?

Yes — branch when identification medium is 0x01001c.

Photo path?

Header 0x07 reassembles JPG parts via media buffer.

Galileo in Traccar is a Bitrek-family tagged binary dialect on TCP 5034. GalileoProtocolDecoder reads header 0x01 position batches (IMEI tag 0x03, coords 0x30, CAN/fuel/ADC tags), header 0x07 photo parts, and header 0x08 compressed minimal datasets. An Iridium branch triggers when the identification medium matches 0x01001c.

Frame shape on 5034

Tags use a fixed-length map; replies ack with header 0x02 plus checksum. This is not ASCII # or ##len,imei framing.

Sibling contrast

BCE on 5080 uses masked binary blocks and IMEI as %015d from a little-endian long. Galileo identity is a 15-byte ASCII slice under tag 0x03.

Catalogue stance

Stock Traccar reference. Traxelio catalogues Galileo as positions_only — decoder identity for BYOD review, not a command-provisioning claim.

Setup walkthrough

  1. 1

    Confirm Bitrek/Galileo firmware, not BCE

    Sheets citing masked BCE or port 5080 are the wrong family.

  2. 2

    Aim APN host at TCP 5034

    Save hostname/IP and port 5034; power-cycle.

  3. 3

    Capture a 0x01 tagged batch

    Hex should show tag 0x03 IMEI and tag 0x30 lat/lon, not ## ASCII.

  4. 4

    Then test Iridium or photo

    Iridium and 0x07 photo need the data path live first.

Common troubleshooting

Packets but no fix

Look for tag 0x30 validity; compressed 0x08 uses a 10-byte bitset, not tag 0x30.

Confused with BCE 5080

Move off 5080. Galileo IMEI is ASCII tag 0x03 on 5034, not %015d LE long.

Photo incomplete

0x07 needs all parts until the empty trailer; incomplete media buffer stays open.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the EU GNSS constellation?

No. Here Galileo is the Traccar protocol slug for Bitrek-style tagged binary on TCP 5034.

Command provisioning claimed?

No. Catalogue tier is positions_only keyed to Traccar’s open decoder.

UDP?

Stock Traccar Galileo listener is TCP.
