          Geofence policy (killswitch / anti-tamper)
          

            
Killswitch is wired to GPIO D42; anti-tamper is wired to GPIO D43. Remote commands accept killswitch/anti-tamper or legacy 42/43.

            

              
              Two-zone mode lets zone 1 override zone 0 by priority.
