4.2 Turning OFF the GE865
The turning off of the device can be done in three ways:
by software command (see GE865 Software User Guide)
by hardware shutdown
by Hardware Unconditional Restart
When the device is shut down by software command or by hardware shutdown, it issues to the
network a detach request that informs the network that the device will not be reachable any more.
4.2.1 Hardware shutdown
To turn OFF the GE865 the pad ON# must be tied low for at least 2 seconds and then released.
The same circuitry and timing for the power on shall be used.
The device shuts down after the release of the ON# pad.
TIP: To check if the device has powered off, the hardware line PWRMON should be monitored. When PWRMON goes
low, the device has powered off.
