Hi,

 

I did not work too much with Kepserver, but I will describe some general steps that I would do to start.

First need to find out what connectivity capabilities has the GPS tracker, only in its specification you can find this.

Please see this article: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS313370

If you find a driver that can connect GPS Tracker and Kepware, then you need to send data to Thingworx after installing KepServer Extension

Steps to connect Kepserver and Thingworx are described here.

 

For different kind of setup, configuration regarding Kepserver and Kepserver Extension I encourage you to search articles in PTC Knowledge Base available at support.ptc.com

 

Hope it helps,
