Description:
The device equipped with an OBD II plug is always powered on by the vehicle's battery. You are advised to enable
the sleep function of the device to save battery power.
Sleep level = 0: The sleep mode is disabled (default).
Sleep level = 1: The device enters the normal sleep mode. The GPS module works for five minutes, then the device
will stop working for five minutes. The above actions will be cycled, but the GSM module always works. GPRS and
SMS scheduling functions are not affected.
Sleep level = 2: The device enters the deep sleep mode. If no event (such as the SOS, button triggered, incoming
calls, vibration, or SMS messages) is triggered after five minutes, the GPS module will stop working and the GSM
module will enter the sleep mode. Once an event is triggered, the GPS and GSM modules will be woken up. Then
the above actions will be cycled.
In any condition, you can disable the sleep mode, and then the device exits the sleep mode and returns to the
normal working mode.
In the deep sleep mode, if you want to obtain the location by the SMS or call, when the GPS is valid, the device will
reply to a GPS map link; when the GPS is invalid, it will reply to the most recent GPS map link.
After the device enters the deep sleep mode, functions of Tracking By Time Interval, Tracking By Distance, and
GPSLog are not available until the device is woken up from the deep sleep mode.
The device can be woken up from the sleep mode by pressing a button, making a call, or sending an SMS message.
After events are handled, the device will enter the sleep mode again.
