Command Help

KILL - modify or view the kill switch and start attempt alert settings.  On VT units that have a kill switch and door-open alerts, this command controls both.

 

If the kill switch is ENABLED and the current time is between the begin and end HOURS, then when someone opens a door, Van Tracker will send an alert to the owner's phone.  And when someone tries to start the vehicle, Van Tracker will disable starting and send an alert to the owner's phone.
