gure 11: Power Consumption at Different Stages
The EVB works normally. After entering the tracking mode, the module enters the ALP mode when the
$PAIR732,1*21 command is sent. Then, the power consumption of the ALP mode can be measured.
Record the average value after the power consumption of the ALP mode is stable. For more information,
see document [3] protocol specification.
