GeoFence Configuration
If you want to receive information about the device entering or leaving of the specific zone, you have to set the GeoFence parameters:
1) GeoFence shape and parameters
Polygon zone
Coordinates of each angle of the Zone
Circle zone
Two central coordinates
GeoFence Radius
2) GeoFence name
3) Event
4) SMS text
5) GeoFence working Date and Time
6) Receiver's phone number
As you can see, you can choose from two GeoFence shapes: circle and polygon. Circle type zone must be set of two central coordinates and radius from the centre. Polygon zone must be set of at least three (maximum 10) points with at least six coordinates.
Adding Circle GeoFence
To add circle shape zone, in the Tools Bar choose
Device Configuration / Geofence , then in
Geofence window click on
New Zone.
In the popped up window click on
Circle or
Polygon (depends on the last added zone type)
In the opened menu choose
Circle .
Adjust map image and with left click mark your desired zone centre.
Release left mouse button and slowly moving the mouse form the circle which radius will be equal to the distance from the circle centre to its border.
When you reach the desired zone size, left click again and the zone will be set.
Adding Polygon GeoFence
Polygon shape zone is more complicated, because every single point is set of two coordinates. E.g. if the shape rectangular, you will need eight coordinates to set it.
To form a polygon shape zone, in the Tools Bar choose
Device Configuration / Geofence. Then in the
Geofence window click
New Zone and in the popped up window click on
Circle or
Polygon (depends on the last added zone type)
In the opened menu choose
Polygon .
Adjust the map image and with the left click mark the first GeoFence point.
Release the left mouse button and slowly move the mouse to the second polygon point.
To fix the point position - click the left mouse button once more.
The polygon GeoFence can be set of maximum 10 points. Once you have finished forming the GeoFence, double click the left mouse button and the first point will automatically connect with the last point of the polygon.
When GeoFence is finished, in the
Geofence window click
Done . In the opened
Save Zone window enter the GeoFence name and click
OK .
If you want to cancel saving of the GeoFence, in the
Save zone window click
Cancel .
The new zone can be enabled or disabled by selecting or removing the selection by

SMS Cross Out fields. The possible SMS text options can be chosen from the drop down menu.

The last thing in creating the GeoFence is to enter the phone numbers of the receivers.

Notify Numbers table in the left corner of the slide bar menu. Here you can enter two phone numbers to where the informational SMS messages will be sent.
In the same slide bar there is a
Time Scheduling table where you can set the GeoFence active time.
In there you can set zone's activity time. It can be chosen from:
Week days. E.g.: You can choose or remove any days of the week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and so on.
In the

End time set the period of time when the zone will be checked on the set days.
