M7 GX Technical Manual 42 Raveon Technologies Corp.
In GPS mode 1 (Transponder), the unit will power-down the radio receiver because
it does not receive any over-the-air messages. It will also power-down the GPS if
the TXRATE setting is long enough for it to turn the GPS off, and back-on before
the next time it needs to report position. For example, if the TXRATE is set to 120
(2 minutes), the RV-M7 GX will power the GPS off for most all of this time, only
turning on the GPS long enough before it needs to transmit so that it can get a
position fix. In GPS modes 2-4, the radio receiver is always on. GPS mode 1 is
the lowest power-consumption mode.
