5 MAMBO2 APPLICATION INTERFACE

5.1 Power supply

Your MAMBO is powered by a rechargeable Li-Polymer battery. The power supply 
to recharge the internal battery of the MAMBO2 unit is drown from a valid USB port 
source which complies exactly with the USB standard. A compliant USB host source 
is specified to supply no more than 

500 mA

. The USB voltage is used to charge the 

internal   battery.   The   current   for   charging   the   internal   battery   of   the   MAMBO2 
device is limited to 450 mA. 

5.1.1 Automatic shutdown

 

 

Automatic shutdown takes effect if:

under voltage is detected when battery level runs low

.

The automatic shutdown procedure is equivalent to the initiated power-down, i.e. 
MAMBO2 logs off from the network and the software enters a secure state avoiding 
loss of data.

5.1.2 Power saving

 

 

SLEEP mode reduces the functionality of the modules of the MAMBO2 device  to  a 
minimum and, thus, minimizes the current consumption to the lowest level. Settings 
can   be   made   using   the  

$PFAL,Sys.Device.Sleep

  command.   For   details   see 

examples in table below. Following SLEEP modes are supported by the MAMBO2 
device: 

Ign

Device wakes up when IGN (pin 13 MOLEX, AMP) changes its digital level  
from Low to High (performs a rising edge).

Ring

Device wakes up when the GSM module receives an SMS message.

Timer

=1:20:00

Device wakes up after the defined time has expired.

Motion

Device wakes up when motions are detected.

Example

$PFAL,Sys.Device.Sleep=

Ign+Ring+Timer

=1:20:00

IMPORTANT: 

The sleep and wake-up procedures are quite different depending on 
the selected sleep mode. Please  keep in mind the power saving with 
"

Ring

" parameter works properly only when PIN authentication has 

been done and the device is registered to the GSM network. If you 
attempt to activate power saving while the SIM card is not inserted 
or   the   PIN   not   correctly   entered,   the   device   responds   error   "

shutdown aborted due to bad GSM coverage

" and the power saving 

does   not   take   place.   For   more   details   refer   to   the   manual
