3.4. Power Saving
3.4.1. Sleep Mode
DRX of EG18 is able to reduce the current consumption to a minimum value during the sleep mode, and
DRX cycle index values are broadcasted by the wireless network. The figure below shows the relationship
between the DRX run time and the current consumption in sleep mode. The longer the DRX cycle is, the
lower the current consumption will be.

3.4.1.1. UART Application
If the host communicates with the module via UART interfaces, both of the following preconditions should
be met to make the module enter into sleep mode.
Keep DTR at high level (pulled up by default).
Execute
AT+QSCLK=1
command to enable sleep mode.
