Map

The Map widget allows you to view the location of a device on a map only if it has been configured with geolocation (latitude and longitude).

This will display the device's position over the selected timeframe as a route consisting of a series of points with directions.

Click on the Current position checkbox to de-select it.

Choose the desired timeframe using one of the following options:

  • Click on the Last from text box and select a predefined timeframe from the list. If the desired timeframe is not available, you can manually type a timeframe, such as '3 days', '7 weeks', etc. Note that '3 days' refers to the last three days, including today, for example. Here is a list of predefined timeframe presets: 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and 1 year.

  • Define a custom date range by selecting the start date and end date, including the start time and end time too from the date pickers.

Click on the Save button.
