Pulsa maintains historical location information to help you understand where your Frontier devices have previously been assigned and where they have physically reported from.
This is especially useful when reviewing equipment transfers, investigating installation discrepancies, or locating devices that may have been moved.
Viewing Location & Position History
- Open the Sensor Details page for the sensor associated with your Frontier.
- Click the Frontier's current Location.
- Select History.
- Review the available Location and Position records.
Understanding historical records
Location History
Shows the customer-defined Locations previously associated with the device.
Position History
Shows the physical positions previously reported by the Frontier.
Each historical Position includes accuracy information to help you interpret the reported coordinates.
Common uses for Location History
Review equipment transfers
Check whether a Frontier has reported from multiple sites over time.
Investigate incorrect assignments
Compare previous Locations with GPS-reported positions to identify possible discrepancies.
Locate equipment
Review the device's last-reported position to help narrow down where equipment may have been left or redeployed.
What happens if my Frontier goes offline?
The last-reported Location and Position remain available in the Frontier's history.
However, a device cannot report updated positioning information while powered off or unable to successfully upload data.
How long is history retained?
Pulsa maintains historical customer-defined Location information.
GPS Position data collected through cellular tracking may be cleared after 30 days.
