1.4 Operating modes
SARA-R5 series modules have several operating modes as defined in Table 4.
General Status
Operating Mode
Definition
Power-down
Not-powered mode
VCC supply not present or below operating range: module is switched off.
Power-off mode
VCC supply within operating range and module is switched off.
Normal operation
Deep-sleep mode
RTC runs with 32 kHz reference internally generated.
Idle mode
Module processor runs with 32 kHz reference internally generated.
Active mode
Module processor runs with 26 MHz reference internally generated.
Connected mode
RF Tx/Rx data connection enabled and processor core runs with 26 MHz reference.

Figure 5 describes the transition between the different operating modes.
If low power mode and
PSM are enabled, if AT
inactivity timer and
active timer are expired
• Upon expiration of the
Periodic Update Timer
• Using PWR_ON pin
• RTC alarm
