3.5.2.2. Power down Module Using AT Command
It is also a safe way to turn off the module via AT command AT+QPOWD=1. This command will let the
module log off from the network and allow the firmware to save important data before completely
disconnecting the power supply.
Before the completion of the power down procedure, the module sends out the result code shown below:
NORMAL POWER DOWN
After that moment, no further AT commands can be executed. And then the module enters into the power
down mode.
Please refer to document [1] for details about the AT command AT+QPOWD.
3.5.2.3. Power down GNSS Part Alone Using AT Command
It is a safe way to turn off the GNSS part alone via AT command AT+QGNSSC=0. The power down
scenario for GNSS part is illustrated in the following figure.
