Zones
Zones are the monitored areas within a site. Each zone represents a physical space — a room, corridor, floor, outdoor area — where beacons can be tracked.
Zone types
| Type | Color | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Restricted | Red | Controlled access. A beacon entering the zone triggers an automatic alert |
| Common | Blue | Normal circulation area. No automatic alerts on entry |
| External | Gray | Outside the monitored perimeter |
::: warning Restricted zones When the Synapsys module detects a beacon entering a Restricted zone, a "Restricted Zone Entry" alert is automatically created with High severity. :::

Association with antennas
For a zone to participate in tracking, it must have at least one assigned antenna. The antenna is the link between the physical zone and the location system:
- Zone without antenna → no beacon detection
- Zone with 1 antenna → basic detection
- Zone with multiple antennas → greater accuracy and redundancy
Assign antennas on the Antennas page.
Association with a floor
Zones can be associated with a floor (level) of the site. This association allows you to:
- View the zone in the Zone Map over the floor plan
- Draw the zone boundary in the floor plan editor
The association is made on the floor's edit page. See Floor Plans.
Edit a zone
In the list, click the zone name. You can change:
- Name
- Type (with impact on automatic alerts)
- Description
Delete a zone
Click "Delete" in the list. The confirmation dialog shows how many antennas are assigned to the zone and will be dissociated.
