Regions - the Regions menu

To view the Regions menu, click on Admin -> Zone Configuration -> Regions (the screenshot below is for illustration purposes)

As per the screenshot above, the page is separated into 2 areas:

• Global Region Settings
• The list of regions in your site

Global Region Settings

The Global Region Settings allow you to restrict alert visibility to responders assigned to the highest priority regions only. 

To enable the restriction of alert visibility, tick the check-box for "When regions overlap, restrict alert visibility to responders assigned to the highest priority regions only".

This feature is useful if you have multiple geofences on a site e.g. 1 sterile chemical lab which is embedded within 1 floor of a building - the chemical lab will have a higher priority than the rest of the floor. If there is a response team assigned to the chemical lab and a different response team assigned to the rest of the floor, any alerts from the chemical lab will not be seen by the response team for the floor.

To create a new region, click on Create New Region

Region List

The region list shows the regions you have added in your site listed in alphanumeric order (numbers will appear first)

To edit an existing region, click on a region name to edit the region settings/boundaries.
