7.2 Motion Detection Enabled

When motion detection is enabled, it acts as a modifier for the profile described in

Section 7.1.

If motion is detected while the Asset Tracker is awake and not in its sleep mode, there will be no

change to the configured profile.

There are two possible scenarios that could occur if motion is detected while the Asset Tracker

is in its sleep mode. If the motion event occurs before the next scheduled normal wake time,

then the Asset Tracker will go back into its sleep mode until the next regularly scheduled wake

time. If the motion event occurs after the next scheduled normal wake time, then the Asset

Tracker will wake immediately and start a new acquisition cycle.

The Asset Tracker will continue to follow its profile configuration while it still has messages that

are queued for transmission if motion is detected when the device is ready to transition into its

sleep mode. When the transmission queue is empty after following the profile configuration, the

device will enter its sleep mode indefinitely until a new motion event is detected.

For all profile configurations, regardless of whether motion detection is enabled or not, the Asset

Tracker will return to its sleep mode early if all queued messages are transmitted.
