The dashboard provides three distinct methods for tracking and auditing the geographic positions of enrolled mobile computers:

  • Last Location: Displays the most recent coordinates sent by the mobile computer during its last scheduled sync.
  • Live Location: Initiates a real-time, on-demand tracking session that updates the device's position continuously on the map.
  • History: Logs and maps historical route data over a specified date and time range. It visualizes the exact path traveled by the device. The Play button allows administrators to animate and visually audit the exact route taken by a mobile computer over a selected timeframe.
