  1. Log into the website.
  2. Click Settings.
  3. Click Geo-Services.
  4. In Geo-Fences, click + Add a Fence.
  5. The center of the fence defaults to the system’s installation address. To move the fence location, perform either of the following:
    • Click and drag the location marker on the map.
    • Enter a specific address in the Move fence location to field and click .
  6. In the Fence Name field, enter a name for the Geo-Fence.

To adjust the radius, either click and drag the Geo-Fence anchors on the map overlay, or enter the desired radius in the Radius field (in miles).Note: The minimum Geo-Fence radius is 1 mile (1.6 kilometers), and the maximum is 100 miles (160 kilometers).
