Remarks

When creating geofences that use a dwell time, the time span must be greater than 0.

The DwellTime value is used for monitoring both the Entered and Exited states of a single geofence. If you want to provide different dwell time values for entering and exiting, you should create two Geofence objects, using one to track the Entered state and another to track the Exited state. Then you can specify a different dwell time for each object.
