2.2 Operating Modes
The table below summarizes the various operating modes of SIM968.
Table 4: Overview of operating modes
Mode Function
GSM/GPRS
SLEEP
Module will automatically go into sleep mode if the conditions of sleep
mode are enabling and there is no on air and no hardware interrupt (such as
GPIO interrupt or data on serial port).
In this case, the current consumption of module will reduce to the minimal
level.
In sleep mode, the module can still receive paging message and SMS.
GSM
IDLE
Software is active. Module registered to the GSM network, and the module
is ready to communicate.
GSM
TALK
Connection between two subscribers is in progress. In this case, the power
consumption depends on network settings such as DTX off/on,
FR/EFR/HR, hopping sequences, antenna.
GPRS
STANDBY
Module is ready for GPRS data transfer, but no data is currently sent or
received. In this case, power consumption depends on network settings and
GPRS configuration.
Normal
operation
GPRS
DATA
There is GPRS data transfer (PPP or TCP or UDP) in progress. In this case,
power consumption is related with network settings (e.g. power control
level); uplink/downlink data rates and GPRS configuration (e.g. used
multi-slot settings).
