Power Consumption

The power consumption levels of the WISMO228 vary depending on the operating mode used and 
the following sub‐sections describe the power consumption values of the WISMO228 when running 
in various operating modes and RF bands. 

Various Operating Modes

Refer to the following table for the list of available operating modes on the WISMO228. 
Mode
When VBATT power is supplied to the WISMO228 but it has not yet been powered
OFF Mode
ON.
When alarm clock is set for the WISMO228 with ALL of the following conditions:
Alarm Mode
When the WISMO228 has a location update with a live network but with no
Idle Mode
GSM/GPRS connection, while the UART interface is in sleep mode.
Connected Mode
The WISMO228 has GSM voice codec connection with a live network.
Transfer Mode
The WISMO228 has GPRS data transfer connection with a live network.
Note that there are two different methods of entering sleep mode through the AT command, 
AT+PSSLEEP. 
AT + PSSLEEP = 0 
The  entry  of  sleep  mode  is  controlled  by  the  level  of  the  DTR  signal  and  the 
firmware. 
The  WISMO228  will  never  enter  sleep  mode  when  the  DTR  (viewed  from  the 
module side) is of LOW voltage level. On the other hand, the WISMO228 will enter 
sleep mode when the DTR (viewed from the module side) is of HIGH voltage level. 
To wake the WISMO228 up, it is necessary to toggle the DTR (viewed from module 
side) from HIGH to LOW voltage level. 
This  method  should  be  used  if  the  application  needs  to  forbid  the  entry  of  sleep 
mode. 
AT + PSSLEEP = 1 
The entry of sleep mode is controlled just by the firmware.
