Motion data report

The motion data report shows the motion data of the devices over a period of time.

This includes:

  • Vibration Amount
  • Maximum Tilt Event
  • Maximum force event (3d Magnitude)
  • Maximum force experiences (X)
  • Maximum force experiences (Y)
  • Maximum force experiences (Z)
  • X Tilt (Pitch)
  • Y Tilt (Roll)
  • Z Tilt (Yaw)

This data is recorded whenever a location update is sent, while the data collection is enabled.

Configuration

There are a few things you must to to correctly set up the motion data report on a device.

⚡ Tip

In order to get your device to send motion data at the point in time that motion occurs, you will want to enable either Motion detection or notifications for when A fall or shock is detected.

A fall will be detected if the tilt is greater than 30 degrees and or a shock of more than 1.5g is detected (defaults).

Enable data collection

To enable the report, you must enable the Advanced Accelerometer Data setting in the advanced device settings.

Positioning the device

In order to get correct data for tilt values, you must configure the 0 position of the device.

If this is not done, the tilt values will be incorrect.

  • Grab your tracker
  • Hold the button for 3 seconds, and release, the device should do 2 short beeps, and LEDs should flash.
  • Immediately place the device in desired position, this will be your baseline.

If you want to change the baseline position of the device in the future, you will need to repeat this process.
