In the Create New Geofence tab you can create geofences around any area in different
shapes. Navigate to the area on the map you would like to create a geofence. Click on
the Circle, Polygon, or Route button. It is suggested that all geofences be in at least a
.2 mile radius, or at least 1 city block around an area to allow for GPS drift.
To create a circular geofence around an area, click on Circle and then click on the spot
on the map you want to create your geofence around. Hold down the left mouse button
and drag the cursor until your geofence is the size you want, and release the mouse
button.
The Polygon button allows you to create geofences in different shapes. Each point you
click on will be a corner of your perimeter.
A Route geofence will be straight lines. You must choose how far a device will need to
be away from the route before a report is generated.
Once you have created a geofence, assign it a name in the Geofence field and hit Save.
You may also choose to enter a short description for your geofence.
The Assign Geofence tab allows you to activate and deactivate geofences. Select a
device from the dropdown menu to see what geofences are currently active. Click
on an Assigned Geofence to view and edit its configuration. Click the Remove link to
deactivate a geofence. Hit Save once you have finished making changes.
Click on the check box for any Available geofence to edit its configuration and press
the Save button to implement it.
The View Geofence tab allows you to view your geofences.
Click the Speed button on the dashboard to set up speed alerts. Simply select your
device and enter a speed which, when exceeded, will generate an alert. Choose the
days and times you would like the alert to be active, if you would like duplicate alerts
to be ignored, and enter an email address where you wish to receive your notifications.
If you would prefer to receive alert notifications via text message, click on the + button
and enter your phone information. Hit Save once you have finished configuring your
alerts.
Click the Panic button to set up panic alerts. Choose a device and whether you would
like to ignore duplicate alerts (not suggested for the panic feature), and choose the icon
you would like to appear on the map to denote a panic alert. If you would like to receive
emailed alerts, enter your email address into the Email Address bar. If you would prefer
to receive alerts via text message, press the + button and enter your phone information.
Hit Save once you have finished configuring your alerts.
