The following profile should beep three times if GPS is enabled and I am within 30m of my office …

A1: Beep [ Frequency:8000 Duration:1000 Amplitude:50 Stream:3 ]
A2: Wait [ MS:500 Seconds:0 Minutes:0 Hours:0 Days:0 ]
A3: Beep [ Frequency:8000 Duration:1000 Amplitude:50 Stream:3 ]
A4: Wait [ MS:500 Seconds:0 Minutes:0 Hours:0 Days:0 ]
A5: Beep [ Frequency:8000 Duration:1000 Amplitude:50 Stream:3 ]

GPS as a trigger can be unreliable. a more reliable trigger is WiFi Near if there is a WiFi network at the location of interest.

(In this post I hid the exact coordinates with x's.)
