AT+UPSV=2: power saving enabled and controlled by the RTS line
This configuration can only be enabled with the module hardware flow control disabled by AT&K0 command.
The UART interface is immediately disabled after the DTE sets the
RTS
line to OFF.
Then, the module automatically enters idle-mode whenever possible according to any required activity related to
the network or any other required activity related to the functions / interfaces of the module.
The UART is disabled as long as the
RTS
line is held to OFF, but the UART is enabled in case the module needs to
transmit some data over the UART (e.g. URC).
When an OFF-to-ON transition occurs on the
RTS
input line, the UART is re-enabled and the module, if it was in
idle-mode, switches from idle to active-mode after ~20 ms: this is the UART and module “wake up time”.
If the
RTS
line is set to ON by the DTE the module is not allowed to enter the low power idle-mode and the
UART is kept enabled.
AT+UPSV=3: power saving enabled and controlled by the DTR line
The AT+UPSV=3 configuration can be enabled regardless the flow control setting on UART. In particular, the HW
flow control can be enabled (AT&K3) or disabled (AT&K0) on UART during this configuration.
The UART interface is immediately disabled after the DTE sets the
DTR
line to OFF.
Then, the module automatically enters idle-mode whenever possible according to any required activity related to
the network or any other required activity related to the functions / interfaces of the module.
The UART is disabled as long as the
DTR
line is set to OFF, but the UART is enabled in case the module needs to
transmit some data over the UART (e.g. URC).
When an OFF-to-ON transition occurs on the
DTR
input line, the UART is re-enabled and the module, if it was in
idle-mode, switches from idle to active mode after 20 ms: this is the UART and module “wake up time”.
If the
DTR
line is set to ON by the DTE, the module is not allowed to enter idle-mode and the UART is kept
enabled until the
DTR
line is set to OFF.
When the AT+UPSV=3 configuration is enabled, the
DTR
input line can still be used by the DTE to control the
module behavior according to AT&D command configuration (see
u-blox AT Commands Manual
The
CTS
output line indicates the UART power saving state as illustrated in Figure 28, if HW flow control
is enabled with AT+UPSV=3.
The AT+UPSV=3 power saving configuration is not supported by “01” product version.
Wake up via data reception
The UART wake up via data reception consists of a special configuration of the module
TXD
input line that
causes the system wake-up when a low-to-high transition occurs on the
TXD
input line. In particular, the UART
is enabled and the module switches from the low power idle-mode to active-mode within ~20 ms from the first
character received: this is the system “wake up time”.
As a consequence, the first character sent by the DTE when the UART is disabled (i.e. the wake up character) is
not a valid communication character even if the wake up via data reception configuration is active, because it
cannot be recognized, and the recognition of the subsequent characters is guaranteed only after the complete
system wake-up (i.e. after ~20 ms).
The UART wake up via data reception configuration is active in the following case:
the
TXD
input line is configured to wake up the system via data reception only if AT+UPSV=1 is set with
hardware flow control disabled
