functionalit AT command "AT+CFUN" can be used to set the module to a minimum functionality mode
y mode without removing the power supply. In this mode, the RF part of the module will not work or the
SIM card will not be accessible, or both RF part and SIM card will be closed, and the serial port
is still accessible. The power consumption in this mode is lower than normal mode.

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.
Software is active. Module registered to the GSM/WCDMA network, and
the module is ready to communicate.
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.
Module is ready for GPRS/EDGE/HSPA+ data transfer, but no data is
currently sent or received. In this case, power consumption depends on
network settings and GPRS/EDGE/HSPA+ configuration.
There is GPRS/EDGE/HSPA+ data transfer 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).
