 Driving the host DTR to low level will wake up the module.
 When BG96 has URC to report, RI signal will wake up the host. Please refer to Chapter 3.14 for
details about RI behavior.
 AP_READY will detect the sleep state of the host (can be configured to high level or low level
detection). Please refer to AT+QCFG=“apready” command for details.
AT+QCFG=“apready” command is under development.
