A Geo-Fence is a virtual geographic boundary that by default, is set up around your installation address and lets you create location-based alerts and rules based on the location of one or more phones, or Geo-Devices. From the website, you can edit the geo-fence location, name, and radius.
To create or edit a Geo-Fence using the website:
- Log into your customer account.
- Click Settings.
- Click Geo-Services.
- To edit a Geo-Fence, click the Geo-Fence to edit under Geo-Fences.
- To add a new Geo-Fence, click + Add a Fence.
- To move the fence location, either click and drag the location marker on the map, or enter a specific address in the Move fence location to field.
Note: The center of the fence defaults to the system's installation address.
- In the Fence Name field, enter a name for the Geo-Fence.
- To adjust the radius, either click and drag the Geo-Fence anchors on the map overlay, or enter the desired radius in the Radius field (in miles).
Note: The minimum radius is 1.6 kilometers (or one mile), and the maximum is 160 kilometers (or 100 miles). If your account is in Canada, the minimum distance is 3 kilometers for a Geo-Fence.
- Click Save.
