Mode |
Function |
|
Normal operation |
GSM/GPRS SLEEP |
The module will automatically
go into SLEEP mode if DTR is set to high level and there is no interrupt
(such as GPIO interrupt or data on serial port). In this case, the current
consumption of module will reduce to the minimal level. During SLEEP mode, the module
can still receive paging message and SMS from the system normally. |
GSM IDLE |
Software is active. The module
has registered to the GSM network, and the module is ready to send and
receive. |
|
GSM TALK |
GSM connection is going. In
this mode, the power consumption is decided by the configuration of Power Control
Level (PCL), dynamic DTX control and the working RF band. |
|
GPRS IDLE |
The module is not registered to
GPRS network. The module is not reachable through GPRS channel. |
|
GPRS STANDBY |
The module is registered to
GPRS network, but no GPRS PDP context is active. The SGSN knows the Routing
Area where the module is located at. |
|
GPRS READY |
The PDP context is active, but
no data transfer is going on. The module is ready to receive or send GPRS
data. The SGSN knows the cell where the module is located at. |
|
GPRS DATA |
There is GPRS data in transfer.
In this mode, power consumption is decided by the PCL, working RF band and
GPRS multi-slot configuration. |
|
POWER DOWN |
Normal shutdown by sending the
“AT+QPOWD=1” command, using the PWRKEY pin. The power management ASIC
disconnects the power supply from the base band part of the module, and only
the power supply for the RTC is remained. Software is not active. The serial
interfaces are not accessible. Operating voltage (connected to VBAT) remains
applied. |
|
Minimum functionality mode (without removing power supply) |
Use the “AT+CFUN” command can
set the module to a minimum functionality mode without removing the power
supply. In this case, the RFpart of the module will not work or the SIM card
will not be accessible, or both RF part and SIM card will be closed all, but
the serial port is still accessible. The power consumption in this case is
very low. |
