Use this tab to specify options for device lockdown.
Custom Home Screen
Templates are HTML files that dictate how the device's home screen items display when in lockdown mode. You can use a template provided by SOTI MobiControl or create your own.
Speed Control
Use this tab to specify options for Speed Control Lockdown. Speed Control Lockdown triggers when the device is travelling at or above a set speed, as specified in this section. The speed of the device is calculated by tracking differences in device location (using the device's GPS unit) over time.

Deactivation Time | Specify the ending time during each day when you want speed control to possibly be active on the device. |
Speed Control Starts At | Enter the speed at which speed control triggers, and the speed measurement unit.

Control Lockdown does not apply until the time specified in
the Engage Timer field has
expired.

Engage Timer | Enter the time (in seconds) during which the device travels at or above the threshold speed before the device enters Speed Control Lockdown. This delay helps prevent the excessive applying of Speed Control Lockdown. |
Disengage Timer | Enter the time (in seconds) during which the device travels below the threshold speed before the device exits Speed Control Lockdown. This delay helps prevent the excessive removal of Speed Control Lockdown. |
