RTV5/PT-10 Feature: Geo-Fence With Ghost Effect!
11 Nov 2009
GPS Tracking With Geo-Fences On The PT-10 RTV5
A geo-fence is a defined geographical area on a map, that you define. It will alert you whenever your RTV5/PT-10 enters or exits each zone. We've taken geo-fence alerts even further with the Ghost Effect Geo-Fence!
You can set as many areas on the map as you’d like – its as simple as naming your area – moving the pins on the map to the area you would like to “geo-fence” – then selecting the time frame the fence is active (when you will get alerted, the default is 24/7) – as well as selecting whether you would like to be alerted on entry or exit, or both and finally setting your cellphone number and/or email address, save your paramters and you are done.
Set-up is simple and fast. Here is where our system gets really really cool!
Under The Reports Tab – You will find a report called – “Zone Activity”.
You can run a report – that will let you know where and when zones were entered and exited, and by which vehicles.
But It Gets Even Crazier! With The Ghost Effect!
Let’s say you want to check a location, or an area on the map that you had not previously set a geo-fence on, but wanted to know if one of your vehicles was in that area, on a certain day/time. Well guess what – create a new geo-fence, run the “Zone Activity” report – and the interface will tell you if and when any of your vehicles were ever in the new fence you created!
