an inactivity doze mode when using the OpenAir standard.
The doze mode is automatically engaged when a certain period
of time has elapsed since the Windows CE device has sent or
received data over the network. Once the card has entered the
doze mode, it draws less power from the Windows CE device.
The card can be awakened from doze mode by a Master unit
attempting to send data to it. The time before dozing is calcu-

mode, you may want to use the CE device with AC power.
