How to use Traccar manager geofence ?

pascal0613 days ago

Hello everybody,
I would want to use geofences to alert me that a device enter or quit a zone.
By using web interface, I created virtual perimeters in the appropriate section.
Then, I created two notification "virtual perimeter output" and "virtual perimeter entrance":

Then, I supposed that I would receive a notification on my Android Traccar Manager each time a device enter or quit a perimeter.
But nothing happen.
Did I understand how it works correctly?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Have you linked geofences to your devices?

Hello Anton,
thanks a lot for your reply, and sorry for my late reply :)
No,
before asking here, I hasn't linked yet geofences to the devices.
So, what I did:
In web interface, click on :
• Parameters

• Devices

• Connections

• In the “Virtual Perimeters” drop-down box, choose the zones previously created in “Virtual Perimeters”

• In the “Notifications” drop-down box, choose the events that will trigger a notification:

I don't know if I did it well, but for now it's still doesn't work.
Can you help me please ?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Pascal

It should work now. Do you see events in the event report?

I'm sure you're missing something, but hard to tell what without looking at your setup.

Hello Anton,
ok indeed I can miss something.
Which setup do you need to look to help me ? I guess at least web interface ?
If you want, I can give you an access.
Tell me if it could help us.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Pascal

That would be beyond what I can do here on the forum. We do have professional services if you want to take a look.
