Feature
Notes
Processor power savings
This feature optimizes idle power consumption, saving energy by
reducing performance where possible.
LED power savings
Minimize use of LEDs, showing only alerts.
USB power saving
USB shutdown.
Ethernet power savings
Ethernet port savings can be achieved by;
1) Lowering Ethernet speed.
2) Ensuring EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is enabled.
3) Shutting down unused Ethernet ports.
Serial Power savings
Shutting down serial port if it is not being used.
GNSS power savings
Shutting down GNSS if it is not being used.
Ignition shutdown delay
When powered by battery (car battery), the router can use the
ignition sense pin on the DC power cable to shutdown after a user
configured delay (i.e. once the ignition is turned off)
Low voltage standby
The router will enter standby mode if the voltage reaches a user
defined threshold. This is intended as a battery saving feature.
Standby
When the router is not required for a specific time period or when
the analog/digital inputs are in a particular state, it can be put
into standby where minimal power will be consumed. When
these conditions change, the router will automatically wake up
and resume normal operations.
