    Hi, i´ve developed my own device based on a Microcontroler and a SIMCOM module, my GTSDMTP server is working, and listen all data in 25xxx port TCP. Everithing is ok, i can enter in my account and i see my pushpins in the map. However, in my account page i´ve created a Geozone, and i need that when my Device sends position and this is entering in that Geozone, the server email me with an alert for Arrive or Departure status for this Geofence. I can send email´s from my account with reports buy i dont know how to make this feature. Thanks for all and for this greatful software.

    Hi Renato,

    Cool that you have developed your own AVL device!

    As for the Geozone-triggered email notifications, you will need to implement a RuleFactory and create a rule so every time that an event is coming from the device, the geopoint is checked to see if it is inside a Geozone or not.

    Look for RuleFactory in the forum to get more information about how to implement it, and take a look in the /src/org/opengts/db/RuleFactory.Example.java to see how a rule looks like. There is even an example of email notification sending.

    Cheers,
    Eduardo.

    Thanks Eduardo for your help!.
    See, i had had to edit StartupInit.Java and enable this:

    Device.setRuleFactory(new RuleFactoryExample());  by uncomment "//" characters. I compiled, "ant track", and refresh my apache.

    Now i see in Geozone Settings (Web), two checkbox "Departure Zone" and "Arrive Zone". then i did check them, but when my device enter or exit from this geozone, nothing happens!. My device receive only:

    $E0A0     ACKNOWLEDGE
    $E0FF    END SESSION.

    Also, i think that when a Geozone is achieved server sends CODES to the device. Is it right? or a possibility?

    Example of this application:
    I set a geofence "XX", my device is inside this geofence, and when my device Exit, first, send an alert to the notification email for the account, and also send a CODE to the device, my device Process this code and play an alarm or turn off my motor.

    Regards,

    Renato

    Hi, in my device page i see this now:

    Enable Notification (Selector)
    Notification email:    rrr@mail.com
    Notification rules:   what is this for?
    Notification reference: ??????
    Notification Message:  Text attached i think to my event.
    Notification Envelop: (See tag 'EventNotificationEMail' en 'private.xml')

    But when i try to save data, enabling notification, put my email notification, it doesn´t save anything.  Why???
    Im still not reveive any email alert.

    @ Sam,

    I have seen your post in three different threads in this forum. Please DO NOT DO THAT! It just pollutes the forum.
    I am not sure, but I believe that simcom is just the GSM/GPRS module of a tracker device. A good Google session may help you.

    @ Renato:
    Even if you have well configured the Geozones page, you won't be able to receive any notification if you do not have installed a RulesFactory that takes care of evaluating the events and triggering the different actions. (email sending, for instance).
    There is Rule Factory example in /src/org/opengts/dbRuleFactoryExample.java that you may use a starting point to work out your own rules.
    There are quite a few threads here that will help you in the process.

    Cheers,
    Eduardo.

    @ Sam,
    Just googling a bit, I found that the gl-101 SIMCOM based tracker is also named  "Enduro", "Spark Nano", amoung other names. That may help you to find more info about it.

    Hello all,

    I'm trying to configure email notifications for geofence. I know that I need to configure rulesfactory but I'm not a java developper and I need help. Is there a tutorial to create a rule for geofencing email notification?

    Thank you for your help.

    Hi newby here,

    I am trying to understand the org/opengts/db/tables/Geozone table, can anyone show me the way how to analyse this for MINIMUM/MAXIMUM BOUND calculation for valid geopoint in case of circle.
    If any document to get flow of coding its really add-on.

    Thank you
