I. Auto-Fetch Controls
By default, when the map is invoked for last known locations (versus historical locations) it will continue to load new points as they become available to the system. The map will check for new points every 60 seconds or instantly upon clicking the refresh icon. Note that this does not force the device to send a new GPS location, it simply checks the database to see if a new point has arrived. The pause button may be used to stop the 60 second auto fetch. Once paused (the pause button changes to a play button) another click will resume fetching for new points every 60 seconds.
