During e-I-DRX, it is recommended to use UART interface for data
communication, as the use of USB interface will increase power consumption.
3.4. Power Saving
3.4.1. Airplane Mode
When the module enters into airplane mode, the RF function does not work, and all AT commands
correlative with RF function will be inaccessible. This mode can be set via the following ways.
Hardware:
W_DISABLE# is pulled up by default.Driving it to low level will let the module enter into airplane mode.
Software:
AT+CFUN=<fun>command provides choice of the functionality level, through setting <fun> into 0, 1 or 4.
 AT+CFUN=0: Minimum functionality mode. Both (U)SIM and RF functions are disabled.
AT+CFUN=1: Full functionality mode (by default).
AT+CFUN=4: Airplane mode. RF function is disabled.
1. Airplane mode control viaW_DISABLE# is disabled in firmware by default. It can be enabled by
AT+QCFG=“airplanecontrol” command.
2. The execution of AT+CFUN command will not affect GNSS function.
3.4.2. Power Saving Mode(PSM)
BG96 module can enter into PSM for reducing its power consumption. The
