The following methods can be used to power off SIM7000.
● Method 1: Power off SIM7000 by pulling the PWRKEY pin to ground.
● Method 2: Power off SIM7000 by AT command “AT+CPOWD”.
● Method 3: over-voltage or under-voltage automatic power off. The voltage range can be set by
● Method 4: over-temperature or under-temperature automatic power off.
Note: If the temperature is outside the range of -30~+80
℃
, some warning will be reported via
AT port. If the temperature is outside the range of -40~+85
℃
, SIM7000 will be powered off
automatically.
For details about “AT+CPOWD” and “AT+CBATCHK”, please refer to Document [1].
These procedures will make modules disconnect from the network and allow the software to enter a
safe state, and save data before module be powered off completely.
The power off scenario by pulling down the PWRKEY pin is illustrated in the following figure.
