When a vehicle enters/exits a Geofence, the entry/exit will be logged into the vehicle’s activity log with the matching entry (

*These functions are security-dependent, and therefore not all users have access to them.
NOTE: A key difference between a geofence and a customer site is that a geofence is programmed into the tracking device on a vehicle and is limited to 30. A customer site is only defined on the Navman Fleet Manager Server and you can have any number of customer sites. Use geofences for areas of interest where you want to be 100% certain that a vehicle has passed through regardless of whether they stop or not. A geofence can be used to define an area of operation that a vehicle works within. You can then later determine the time and distance that a vehicle spends inside that geofence. Use customer sites when you know that a vehicle will be stopping and you want to record how long that vehicle is stopped there or you want to define a location for general reporting purposes.

You can specify different types of alerts for different events:
Beep: OnlineAVL will generate an audible beep when an event is triggered. If this is the only alert type selected, there will be no other alert other than the “beep”.
Popup: This will generate a small alert window similar to a windows error message or notification alert. This window will detail the nature of the alert, the vehicle affected and the time and location of the alert event.
Overall: This forces the popup alert to appear over the top of the OnlineAVL screen.
Flash: This causes the OnlineAVL/Fleet Administrator tab in the lower windows taskbar
to flash when an alert is received.
