Note 1:
The format of Google map/earth’s longitudes and latitudes differs from the format of TR-151SP’s. So please convert the format of Google map/earth’s longitudes and latitudes into the format of TR-151SP’s longitudes and latitudes before setting Geofence. If you get a set of latitude and longitude from Google earth like 24°59’47.40” & 121°29’15.72”, you have to convert the format to TR-151SP format as below and then set geo-fence.
47.40 ÷60=0.79 15.72÷60=0.262 Please take E 12129. & 262 N2459.79 to set geo-fence
Note 2:
If you get a set of latitude and longitude from Google earth like 24.9965°& 121 .4877°, you have to convert the format to TR-150 format as below and then set geo-fence.
0.9965 x60=59.79 0.4877 x60=29.262 Please take E12129. 262 & N2459.79 to set geo-fence
User can set up to 10 rectangular or circular boundaries. Each SMS contains one boundary setting.
