3.9  Reset Signal (ON/OFF Signal) 
 
 
After power is applied to the AL7020S module, the power-on process is initiated, 
which lasts about five seconds, after which the module is ready to communicate. After 
power-on, the on/off signal is pulled high to the VCC by a 200kΩ resistor. The module 
remains active until power is turned off or the power-off process is initiated by 
activating the Reset (ON/OFF) signal. The AT interface answers "OK" to the 
application, when the reset is complete. 
 
 
After the AL7020S is turned on, the line should be pulled low for a minimum of 2 
seconds to turn it off. The unit can be turned off only if at least 10 seconds have 
elapsed since turning it on. To turn the AL7020S on again, the on/off signal should be 
pulled low for a minimum of 800 ms. 
 
Figure 3.8 shows the timing diagram for the on/off signal.

In Figure 3.8, the following timing requirements apply: 
 
• T1 minimum = 800 ms. 
• T2 minimum = 10 seconds. 
• T3 minimum = 2 seconds. 
 
 
 
3.9.1   Software Reset  
 
It is possible to reset the module by software, which activates an internal reset 
generator (see AT Commands Reference Manual).
