Wake up MC55/56 from SLEEP mode 
A wake-up event is any event that causes the module to draw current. Depending on the 
selected mode the wake-up event either switches SLEEP mode off and takes MC55/56 back 
to AT+CFUN=1, or activates MC55/56 temporarily without leaving the current SLEEP mode. 
 
Definitions of the state transitions described in Table 11: 
Quit 
=  MC55/56 exits SLEEP mode and returns to AT+CFUN=1. 
Temporary 
=  MC55/56 becomes active temporarily for the duration of the event and the 
mode-specific follow-up time after the last character was sent or received 
on the serial interface. 
No effect: 
= Event is not relevant in the selected SLEEP mode. MC55/56 does not 
wake up.

Recommendation: In NON-CYCLIC SLEEP mode, you can set an RTC alarm to wake 
up MC55/56 and return to full functionality. This is a useful approach because, in this 
mode, the AT interface is not accessible.
