GPS Tracking

GPS tracking is used to pan the map along with your movements by following your current GPS location. The Center on my location button, in the bottom right corner of the map, turns green when enabled.

If you manually pan/zoom the map while this tool is enabled, the button becomes disabled and won’t follow you until you re-enable it.

ArcFM Mobile determines your GPS location through location services. If your device does not have location services activated in settings, you are notified as such.

Windows Settings

ArcFM Mobile determines your GPS location through Windows Location Services. If your device is configured to prevent apps from accessing your location through Windows Location Services, you can enable them by searching for “location” from the Windows Start menu and opening Location Privacy Settings. Ensure that apps are allowed to access your location and that ArcFM Mobile has permission to do so as well. Depending on your environment, your IT administrator may need to enable location services for you.
