5. Hardware Commands

5.1. Auto-Turning ON the GL865

To Auto-turn on the GL865, the power supply must be applied on

the power pins VBATT and VBATT_PA, after 1000 m-seconds, the

V_AUX / PWRMON

pin will be at the high logic level and the module

can be consider fully operating.

When the power supply voltage is lower than 3.4V, after 4000 m-

seconds, the

V_AUX / PWRMON

pin will be at the high logic level

and the module can be consider fully operating.

The following flow chart shows the proper turn on procedure:

NOTE:

The power supply on the pins VBATT and VBATT_PA must be applied

at the same time or for the special application in the first

apply the VBATT_PA and in second time apply VBATT, never vice

versa in this case can be damage the unit.

NOTE:

In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to

avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital

pins of the GL865 when the module is powered OFF or during an

ON/OFF transition.

5.2. Turning OFF the GL865

Turning off of the device can be done in two ways:

• General turn OFF

• Processor turn OFF

General turn OFF – disconnect the power supply from the both

power pins VBATT and VBATT_PA at the same time. In this case all

parts of the module are in OFF condition, any power consumption

is present.

Processor turn OFF – disconnect the power supply only from the

power pin VBATT, the power pin VBATT_PA can be connected to

power supply, in this case a low, about 30uA, power consumption

is present

Before any of both OFF procedure will be applied, the AT#SYSHALT

AT command must be send (see AT Commands Reference Guide,

80000ST10025a), after the OK response message, check the

V_AUX /

PWRMON

pin, when the logic level is low the module can be

consider fully not operating and at this moment is possible

disconnect the Power Supply

The following flow chart shows the proper turnoff procedure:

GL865 Hardware User Guide

1vv0300910 Rev.1 – 2011-07-22

page 20 of 79

TIP:

To check if the device has been powered off, the hardware line

PWRMON must be monitored. The device is powered off when PWRMON

goes low.

NOTE:

In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to

avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital

pins of the GL865 when the module is powered OFF or during an

ON/OFF transition.
