2.GPS staleness warning threshold (minutes)

For GPS-enabled BreadCrumb devices, position information shown in BCAdmin is marked as "stale" if it has not been updated for this period of time (for example, if the BreadCrumb device’s GPS receiver is no longer able to determine its location).

3.Default battery warning threshold (minutes)

For BreadCrumb devices with no battery warning threshold set, this setting will be used.

Mapping with Fugawi Tracker

BCAdmin has the ability to relay position information from BreadCrumb devices (either manually set by an administrator or obtained via GPS) to the Fugawi Tracker mapping application. Each BreadCrumb device’s asset ID within Fugawi Tracker is its BreadCrumb ID as reported by BCAdmin.

To enable the relaying of position information, open the Preferences dialog shown above and provide the following information:

1.Fugawi Tracker IP Address

This is the IPv4 address of the workstation running the Fugawi Tracker application.

2.Fugawi Tracker Port

This is the IPv4 port on which Fugawi Tracker is listening for TCP connections (default is 800).

3.Fugawi Tracker Password

This is the password configured within Fugawi Tracker that BCAdmin must use upon connecting.
