Testing Power Save Mode
When testing Power Save Mode with EVK-M8GZOE, observe the following points:
•
A set of predefined power mode setups can be selected using the CFG-PMS message. The
Configuration view or Messages view of the u-center evaluation software can be used to do this.
When enabling the mode using CFG-PMS, always save the configuration by checking the “save
configuration” box in u-center otherwise the configuration will be lost.
•
Selecting one of the available setups is the equivalent of using a combination of the configuration
messages with appropriate parameters that impact the power consumption of the receiver.
•
u-blox recommends using these predefined settings, except where users have very specific power
saving requirements.
•
Note that polling UBX-CFG-PMS will return the setup only if the full configuration is consistent
with one of the predefined Power Mode Setups.
•
The evaluation kit can be supplied via the USB connector or at digital connector J1 (pin 2 with 5 V
and pin 18 GND).
