Step 4: Fill in your fence sensor details. You can link any IoT sensors in this section; however, this is optional. Click Next once you are done.

Step 5: Fill in your location details. Follow the instructions given in the pop-up box to add an asset’s location. Click either on the Address button to fill in the closest location or the Map button to select the exact location of your fence sensor.
