Chapter 2. Other Software Features

2.1 Additional Tracking Features

i. Use the menu item View → Display Coordinates to show XYZ coordinates above

each individual tag. The X and Y will update in real time as the tag moves. The Z

will be displayed as a preset tag height. If a Geo stake has been configured,

latitude, longitude, and altitude will also be displayed.

ii. Use the menu item View → Toggle Grid Lines to display a scale grid across the

floorplan you have loaded. The distance bar, always visible in the bottom right

corner of the program, will adjust as you zoom in and out to accommodate

different sizes. This helps check the accuracy of both the map scaling and the

tracking results.

iii. Use the menu item View → Display Geofence Indicators to display circles around

tags when they are inside of a geofence. The color of the circle will correspond

to the color of the geofence. If the tag is inside of overlapping geofences it will

be displayed with concentric circles for each geofence in which it currently

resides.

iv. Toggle Tag Filtering: Use the menu item View → Toggle Tag Filtering to apply

smoothing to data points for clearer tracking performance. This menu item

simply switches filtering on or off. Note: Toggling tag filtering will not affect

other tag tracking settings like the Maximum Calculation Error Threshold.

v. The amount of tag filtering can be configured under View → Configure Tag

Filtering. A typical starting value is 4. A larger value will average more data

points before displaying them. A lower value will display data with minimum

latency but with somewhat more jitter.

vi. Use the menu item View → Toggle Location History to turn on or off a granular,

visual record of asset motion and location. The system will display this granular

history in a unique color for each asset. To clear or de-clutter the view, use the

menu item View → Clear Location History.

vii. Use the menu item View → History Color Shows Number of Antennas to color

the location history based on the number of antennas in range. A color key will

be displayed in the lower left of the program that indicates how many antennas

correspond to which color. Note that in this mode all tags will use the same

history colors.
