Unknown error 11.4 Setting WWAN Priority Mode MC93 features ultra-low power consumption by supporting Extended Discontinuous Reception (eDRX), a feature in NB-Iot and LTE M that enables developers to set, and later change how long a device stays in low-power sleep mode before it wakes up to listen for any network indications for pending data, thus reducing the power consumption. - Page 16 0101 0110 0111 1000 1010 1011 1100 1101 1110 1111 <Requested_eDRX_value> MC Technologies GmbH mc-technologies.com © 2023 MC Technologies Kabelkamp 2 info@mc-technologies.com Errors and omissions excepted 30179 Hanover Tel: +49-511-676 999-0 All rights reserved Germany Fax: +49-511-676 999-150 Page 16...
