Configure geofencing

Geofencing is a mechanism to create a virtual perimeter that allows you configure your IX40 device to
perform actions when entering or exiting the perimeter. For example, you can configure a device to
factory default if its location service indicates that it has been moved outside of the geofence.
Multiple geofences can be defined for one device, allowing for a complex configuration in which
different actions are taken depending on the physical location of the device.
Required configuration items
n Location services must be enabled.
The geofence must be enabled.
n
The boundary type of the geofence, either circular or polygonal.
n
If boundary type is circular, the latitude and longitude of the center point of the circle, and
l
the radius.
If boundary type is polygonal, the latitude and longitude of the polygon's vertices (a vertex
l
is the point at which two sides of a polygon meet). Three vertices will create a triangular
polygon; four will create a square, etc. Complex polygons can be defined.
Actions that will be taken when the device's location triggers a geofence event. You can define
n
actions for two types of events:
Actions taken when the device enters the boundary of the geofence, or is inside the
l
boundary when the device boots.
Actions taken when the device exits the boundary of the geofence, or is outside the
l
boundary when the device boots.
For each event type:
