LTE Standard Module Series
3.2. Sleep Mode
In sleep mode, the module can reduce power consumption to a very low level, the following section
describes power saving procedures of EC200A series module.
3.2.1. UART Application
If the host communicates with module via UART interface, the following preconditions should be met to
enable the module enter sleep mode.
⚫
Execute
AT+QSCLK=1
to enable sleep mode.
⚫
Drive MAIN_DTR to high level.
The following figure shows the connection between the module and the host.

⚫
Driving MAIN_DTR to low level by host will wake up the module.
⚫
When the module has a URC to report, the URC will trigger the behavior of MAIN_RI pin. Please
refer to
for details about MAIN_RI behavior.
3.2.2. USB Application with USB Remote Wakeup Function
If the host supports USB Suspend/Resume and remote wakeup functions, the following three
preconditions must be met to let the module enter sleep mode.
⚫
Execute
AT+QSCLK=1
command to enable the sleep mode.
⚫
Ensure the MAIN_DTR is kept at high level or kept open.
