How can I setup the FOX3 or BOLERO40 to send its position via SMS to a smartphone with a "google maps" link?

By using the dynamic entries/variables &(Lat) &(Lon) you can replace the coordinates for all popular online map services and generate a link to be clicked on.

Example: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=&(Lat)+&(Lon)

Suppose you want to setup your FOX3 or BOLERO40 so that it sends its position to your smartphone via SMS with a "google maps" link whenever the vehicle exists a predefined Geofence.

$PFAL,CNF.Set,AL25=GPS.Geofence.ex=Outside:GSM.SMS.SendRaw,"+49123456789",0,"http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=&(Lat)+&(Lon)"

Note: +49123456789 should be replaces by your phone number.

Once the FOX3 or BOLERO40, i.e. the vehicle, exits the predefined Geofence, it sends a SMS to the phone number with a "google maps" link

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=50.635366+10.871085

Click on the link to see the position of the vehicle on the map

Note: you can use any other condition for sending the SMS instead of exiting the Geofence.
