GSM/GPRS Module
M85 Hardware Design
M85_Hardware_Design Confidential / Released 24 / 92
Use the EMERG_OFF pin only when failing to turn off the module by the command ―AT+QPOWD=1‖ and
the PWRKEY pin. Please refer to the Section 3.4.2.4.
In this case, the current consumption of module will reduce
to the minimal level.
During Sleep Mode, the module can still receive paging
message and SMS from the system normally.
GSM IDLE
Software is active. The module has registered to the GSM
network, and the module is ready to send and receive
GSM data.
GSM TALK
GSM connection is ongoing. In this mode, the power
consumption is decided by the configuration of Power
Control Level (PCL), dynamic DTX control and the working
RF band.
GPRS IDLE
The module is not registered to GPRS network. The
module is not reachable through GPRS channel.
GPRS STANDBY
The module is registered to GPRS network, but no GPRS
PDP context is active. The SGSN knows the Routing Area
where the module is located at.
GPRS READY
The PDP context is active, but no data transfer is ongoing.
The module is ready to receive or send GPRS data. The
SGSN knows the cell where the module is located at.
GPRS DATA
There is GPRS data in transfer. In this mode, power
consumption is decided by the PCL, working RF band and
GPRS multi-slot configuration.
POWER DOWN
Normal shutdown by sending the ―AT+QPOWD=1‖ command, using the PWRKEY
or the EMERG_OFF
1)
pin. The power management ASIC disconnects the power
supply from the base band part of the module, and only the power supply for the
RTC is remained. Software is not active. The UART interfaces are not accessible.
Operating voltage (connected to VBAT) remains applied.
Minimum
Functionality
Mode (without
removing power
supply)
―AT+CFUN‖ command can set the module to a minimum functionality mode
without removing the power supply. In this case, the RF part of the module will not
work or the SIM card will not be accessible, or both RF part and SIM card will be
disabled, but the UART port is still accessible. The power consumption in this
case is very low.
