Description
Transition between operating modes
Active
The module is ready to communicate with an
external device by means of the application
interfaces unless power saving configuration is
enabled by the AT+UPSV command (see
sections 1.5.1.4, 1.9.1.4 and the
u-blox AT
Commands Manual
When the module is switched on by an appropriate power-on event
(see 2.3.1), the module enters active mode from not-powered or
power-off mode.
If power saving configuration is enabled by the AT+UPSV command,
the module automatically switches from active to idle mode whenever
possible and the module wakes up from idle to active mode in the
events listed above (see idle to active transition description).
When a voice call or a data call is initiated, the module switches from
active mode to connected mode.
Connected
A voice call or a data call is in progress.
The module is ready to communicate with an
external device by means of the application
interfaces unless power saving configuration is
enabled by the AT+UPSV command (see

Commands Manual
When a voice call or a data call is initiated, the module enters
connected mode from active mode.
When a voice call or a data call is terminated, the module returns to
active mode.
