Connecting a new device to an existing platform

Check the protocol, transmitted data, platform reception and what users can actually view

Updated 11 November 2026

When a platform is already in use, describe its protocol requirements and the information the team needs. A shared protocol name is a starting point; data items, functions and configuration still need individual checks.

Match the model and protocol

Current documentation lists GT06 for Y18 and WYOBD, and JT808 for WY320. WY826 lists JT/T808-2013/2019, JT/T905 and JT/T1078. Keep the device model and documented version details in the integration request.

StageWhat to confirm
Device transmissionWhich data/events the chosen configuration sends, and the connection/reporting setup.
Platform receptionWhether the existing platform can receive and recognise the required records.
User accessWhich information appears in the interface and which accounts can access it.

Verify work tasks individually

For example, list location, ignition status and power-disconnection alerts as three separate requirements. If video, sensor data or remote commands are needed, add their hardware and software conditions. A device appearing in a list does not confirm every task.

Check one complete record

Choose a known device and a specific task. Compare the event time, the information produced, the platform record and the user-visible result. Record any difference with the configuration used. This suggested check helps define integration scope; it does not promise automatic or free integration.
