Power Management
Having adequate power to the module is critical for optimum
performance. With this in mind, the GPS Tracking System was
designed with three power operations.
●
Normal Operation
(ignition on) - The system will
continually update its GPS position, send and receive
all wireless communication where cellular coverage
is available, and carry out any predetermined func-
tions.
●
Standby Operation
(ignition off) - When the igni-
tion is off power conservation is essential. The sys-
tem will do periodic GPS position checks once every
10 minutes.
●
Sleep Operation
- If the system sees the battery
voltage drop to 11 volts for longer than 15 minutes,
the system will automatically switch to sleep mode.
The system will only wake up if it sees an alarm con-
dition or the ignition is turned on.
