Finding a G6 Device

G6 devices that are on the Protect service plan communicate to Blackline Live every six hours. The Find my G6 function lets you find devices that have gone missing within that six-hour window by having the device communicate its location to Blackline Live every 30 minutes for 2.5 hours.

Note:

Increasing the frequency that G6 connects to Blackline Live reduces a device’s battery life.

  1. In the Live map view, locate then select the missing G6 device.
    Search for specific G6 devices. The device’s info panel opens, displaying the last known details for the device. The device location pin indicates the device’s location the last time it connected to Blackline Live.
  2. In the selected device’s Info panel, select Find my G6.
    Find my G6 option

    The Find my G6 dialog box opens, informing you that the device connects to Blackline Live every 30 minutes for the next 2.5 hours.

  3. To confirm your selection, select Find G6 in the Find my G6 dialog box.
    Find my G6 dialog box

When the 2.5 hours is completed, the Find my G6 function automatically turns off.
