3.8.2. DTR Signal
The DTR signal supports sleep control function. Driving it to low level will wake up the module.
3.8.3. W_DISABLE# Signal
EG21-G MINIPCIE provides a W_DISABLE# signal to disable wireless communications through
hardware operation.
W_DISABLE# signal function is disabled by default, and AT+QCFG=“airplanecontrol”,1 can be used to
enable this function. The W_DISABLE# pin is pulled up by default. Driving it to low level will let the module
enter into airplane mode.
The details of W_DIABLE# signal function is as follows:
