Thanks for the email. As a followup here so that it might be useful to other users:
The "Time Range" setting on the fences doesn't support "overnight range". In other words, the start time and end time must be on the same day. The solution is to break the range into 2. For example, from 4pm to 8am next day would be "16:00-24:00,00:00-08:00".

so the support guy figured it out! for overnight tracking.

Pretend you wanted to set the fence at your house at around 11pm at night and make it last til like 6am you would have to set the time range to 23:00-23:59,00:01-06:00

thx alot!
