==How to connect a device to created channel==
 
In instructions [[First_time_with_flespi_platform#How_to_create_a_Channel| <i>'How to create a channel'</i>]] a channel has been created with channel <b>IP Address/Domain and Port</b> numbers. To connect to that
 
channel, the device must be configured. <b>IP Address/Domain and Port</b> numbers are shown in image below.<br>

<b>Note:</b> To configure how frequently the device sends data to the <i>flespi</i> platform, go to <b>Data Acquisition settings</b>
 
and set <b>On stop</b>, <b>Moving</b> parameters in the configurator. In the example below, the device has been
 
configured to:<br>
 
* <i>Min Period</i> – Acquire a new record every 5 seconds <br>
 
* <i>Min Saved Records </i> – Have minimum 5 records in one data packet that can be sent to the server<br>
 
* <i>Send Period</i> – Send records to the server every 30 seconds.<br>

The service can receive and process data from almost any telematics device on the market regardless of the protocol and store them in a standardized JSON format. Unified messages are easily accessible and instantly ready-for-use in your software.

flespi ecosystem currently includes:

  • Telematics hub – connect versatile trackers to multiple platforms quicker. Aggregate data from devices by multiple manufacturers and stream it to fleet management, IoT, or BI platforms from a feature-rich visual interface.
  • Device management platform – configure your tracking devices in a single spot. Send commands via GPRS or SMS from a user-friendly universal device configurator and easily debug any issues in Toolbox.
  • MQTT broker – enable fast and secure M2M communication. Establish reliable connectivity within your IoT infrastructure using advanced features from the MQTT 5.0 specification.
  • Telematics database — store telemetry from tracking devices, readings from sensors, pics & videos from cameras, and more. Get the data in an instant in your applications once needed.
