1.7.2 Operating modes
The table below briefly summarizes the various operating modes referred to in the following chapters.
Limits
Function
Normal operation
GSM / GPRS /
UMTS / HSPA SLEEP
Power saving automatically activated when no calls are in progress, the
USB connection is suspended by the host or not present, and there is no
active communication via ASC0
GSM / GPRS / UMTS
/ HSPA IDLE
Power saving is disabled if a USB connection is not suspended, but no call
is in progress.
GSM TALK / GSM
DATA
Connection between two subscribers is in progress. Power consumption
depends on the GSM network coverage and several connection settings
(e.g. DTX off/on, FR/EFR/HR, hopping sequences and antenna
connection). The following applies when power is to be measured in
TALK_GSM mode: DTX off, FR and no frequency hopping.
GPRS DATA
GPRS data transfer in progress. Power consumption depends on network
settings (e.g. power control level), uplink / downlink data rates and
GPRS configuration (e.g. used multislot settings).
EGPRS DATA
EGPRS data transfer in progress. Power consumption depends on
network
settings (e.g. power control level), uplink / downlink data rates and
EGPRS configuration (e.g. used multislot settings).
UMTS TALK / UMTS
DATA
UMTS data transfer in progress. Power consumption depends on network
settings (e.g. TPC Pattern) and data transfer rate.
HSPA DATA
HSPA data transfer in progress. Power consumption depends on network
settings (e.g. TPC Pattern) and data transfer rate.
Low Power mode
Available in “L” option devices. All the electronics systems remain disconnected from the power
supply input, with the exception of RS232/RS485 interfaces and its controller. This allows to wake
up the unit from those interfaces
Ultra Low Power
mode
Available in “U” option devices. All the electronic systems remain disconnected from the power
supply input, with the exception of a little piece of logic which allows for waking up the unit again
from a tamper input or after a specified time
Airplane mode
Airplane mode shuts down the radio part of the device, causes the modem to log off from the
GSM/GPRS network, and disables all AT commands whose execution requires a radio connection.
Airplane mode can be controlled by AT command
