cept for “Mode 3”. The terminal always switches to “Mode 3” when the built-in battery charge is depleted to
a critical level.
If iON Connect switches to “Mode 1” automatically from the “Main mode”, it does so regardless of the
power source - external power or internal battery - the terminal will switch operating modes in the described
order to optimize power consumption.
“Sleep mode” (Mode 2).
In “Sleep mode”, iON Connect terminal ceases to perform most of its functions and all of its electronic pe-
ripherals, except for movement sensor, are disabled for increased energy conservation. At set periods of time
(set by the configurator or PW#TS2 control command), the terminal wakes up for transmitting LBS coordinates
via GPRS channel to monitoring server. By default, the period is set to 1440 minutes (24 hours). When con-
figuring this interval, keep in mind, that timeout counter starts for PW#TW1 and PW#TW2 simultaneously, in
other words, these intervals are not added up.
“Mode 2” current consumption:
Built-in battery status External power supply voltage
12 V 24 V
Charged max 30 mA max 20 mA
Discharged max 150 mA max 80 mA
List of periodically transmitted data in “Mode 2”:
●
location LBS coordinates (no other data is transmitted).
List of “Mode 2” periodically received data:
●
user commands.
List of peripheral modules continuously operating in “Mode 2”:
●
movement sensor — accelerometer for detecting acceleration during movement and “wake-up”;
List of peripheral modules periodically operating in “Mode 2”:
●
GSM module — for determining LBS coordinates to transmit them to a monitoring server.
The terminal switches to “Sleep mode” only if it is allowed by PW#EN2 command (allowed by default) and
the following 2 conditions are met consecutively:
the terminal is at rest and movement sensor does not detect movement;
movement timeout set by PW#TW1 command (60 minutes by default). Movement timeout set by con-
trol command PW#TW2 (720 minutes i.e. 12 hours by default), has expired.
The terminal remains in “Sleep mode” until one of the following events occurs:
●
movement sensor sends alerts upon movement detection (in this case the terminal switches to “Main
mode”, if this mode has not already been set as operational);
●
built-in battery charge is depleted to a critical level (with external power disabled); the terminal
switches to “Deep Sleep Mode” (“Mode 3”).
To manually switch the terminal to “Mode 2”, send PW#MODE=3 command. Keep in mind, that if switched
to “Mode 2” manually, the device will keep operating in this mode only. It will not switch to other modes ex-
