	~~== Introduction ==~~
	Geofencing is a core feature in modern GPS tracking systems. It allows users to define virtual boundaries on a map. When a GPS-tracked vehicle or asset enters or exits these areas, the system automatically triggers alerts or actions.
	~~== How Geofence Works ==~~
	* A geofence can be a circular or polygonal area defined by latitude and longitude.
	* The Discovery 4G GPS tracker continuously checks its current location via satellite.
	* The system compares this live data against the predefined geofence area.
	* If the asset enters or exits, the event is logged or notified based on configuration.

	~~== How to Get Coordinates from Google Maps ==~~
	~~# Open [https://maps.google.com Google Maps]~~
	~~# Search for your desired location (e.g., warehouse, school)~~
	~~# Right-click on the location and select '''“What’s here?”'''~~
	~~# Note the coordinates shown below (e.g., '''10.0556255, 76.3544891''')~~
	~~# Use these as:~~
	~~## Center point for circular geofences~~
	~~## Corner points for polygon geofences (at least 3, ideally 4–6)~~
	~~# Enter the values into the command format explained below~~

	~~'''Note''': A maximum of '''6 geofences''' (circle or polygon combined) can be configured on any Transight telematics device.~~

	~~== Geofence Command Format ==~~
	* '''Status''': 1 = Enable, 0 = Disable
	* '''Geofence ID''': Unique ID (e.g., 1313, 1777)
	* '''Alert Type''': 1 = Entry, 2 = Exit, 3 = Both
	* '''Shape''': 0 = Circle, 1 = Polygon
	* '''Latitude/Longitude''': Decimal format (e.g., 10.0556255, 76.3544891)
	* '''Radius''': Only for circles (in meters)
	* '''#''': Used to separate parameters
	* '''&''': Must be added at the end of polygon commands

== 💾 Save Configuration ==
After setting up geofences, you must execute the below command to save the configuration permanently:

<pre>
SET TSMR:2
</pre>

----

== 🔍 To Check Configured Geofences ==
Use the command:
<pre>
GET CUGF
</pre>

This will show all geofences currently saved in the device memory.

----

== ✅ Final Verification ==
After setup:
* Ensure the device has a GPS fix.
* Drive or move the asset in and out of the geofenced area.
* Confirm alerts are received/logged as expected.
