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 USB wake-up operation or
data on serial port).
In this case, the current consumption of module will be
reduced to the minimal level.
In sleep mode, the module can still receive paging message
and SMS.

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

5.2.2
Minimize Power Consumption
There are two modes that SIM7100C achieves low power consumption.
5.2.3
Sleep mode
If peripheral equipments stops working, and there is no on air or hardware interrupts (such as GPIO
interrupts or data on UART), SIM7100C will enter sleep mode automatically. In this mode, SIM7100C can
still receive paging，voice call or SMS from network. If USB interface of SIM7100C is connected to host
CPU, but host CPU does not support USB suspending, then SIM7100C will not enter sleep mode. After
USB is disconnected, SIM7100C will enter sleep mode.

Note: When UART interface is connected with host CPU, SIM7100C cannot enter sleep mode until
RXD is pulled down by the host CPU. If the module is in the idle mode, make sure to pull the RXD to
low level by host CPU. SIMCom recommends using GPIO43 or DTR to wake up the module from host
CPU and to use GPIO41 or RI to wake up the host CPU. Before designing, pay attention to how to
realize waking function and refer to Document[24] and Document[25] for more detail.
