| + | A Geofence is an abstract boundary that marks out an area. For example, the system user could click on the map where their offices are shown. The Latitude and Longitude box are then populated with values. If a value of 200 was entered into the radius box, when the geofence is created, an imaginary circle 200 meters in diameter would surround their offices. As a device crosses the threshold of the geofence and enters the 200 meter circle, the device detects this fact and sends that information to the devreach EMM. | ||
| + | The following screen shows what happens when you click on the map. | ||

| + | **__Start/Stop Geofencing__** | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Once a geofence has been created, the Start or Stop geofencing commands can be sent to the device. The device will then start to check periodically whether the device's current location is either inside or outside a particular geofence. If a device is within a predetermined geofence, the geofence will appear in the 'Geofences Device Is located Within' table. | ||

| + | |||
| + | **__Set Min geofencing Check in Meters__** | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | This value must be a whole number and specifies how many meters the device can move before a geofence check is initiated. | ||
| + | Get Min geofencing Check in Meters button retrieves the value that is currently on the device. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **__Set Min geofencing Check in Minutes__** | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | This value must be a whole number and specifies how many minutes must elapse before a geofence check is initiated. | ||
| + | Get Min geofencing Check in Minutes button retrieves the value that is currently on the device. | ||
