Configuration explained

This section contains additional information and examples.

Zero to four circular geofences with configurable radius can be entered in the configuration[1]. The geofence output signal outputs the state (inside / outside) of the current position for each configured fence and also provides a combined state.

Examples

Four geofences are configured as illustrated below.

Four fences (1-4) and 3 positions (A, B, C)

The geofence state for each of the 3 positions are:
