Event Reporting
There are no limits on the number of outgoing events. Once the data allowance is exceeded, data overages apply. Real-time data usage can be seen in the Legacy Web Portal or from the Nautic Alert Mobile App.
On-Demand Data and Messages
On-Demand requests include text requests to the device to arm, disarm, and other commands, from the Legacy Portal or from the Nautic Alert Mobile App for real-time location and data, and event messages sent from the onboard Nautic Alert device.
Global Geofencing
This allows a system owner to graphically set multiple geofence boundaries where travel in or out by their vessel will report notifications in real-time. This feature is ideal for ensuring a vessel is being maintained within permissible areas, and knowing when general location changes occur.
