5. Hardware Commands
5.1. Auto-Turning ON the GL865
To Auto-turn on the GL865, the power supply must be applied on the power pins VBATT and
VBATT_PA, after 1000 m-seconds, the V_AUX / PWRMON pin will be at the high logic level
and the module can be consider fully operating.
When the power supply voltage is lower than 3.4V, after 5000 m-seconds, the V_AUX /
PWRMON pin will be at the high logic level and the module can be consider fully operating.
The following flow chart shows the proper turn on procedure:

NOTE:
The power supply on the pins VBATT and VBATT_PA must be applied at the same time or for
the special application in the first apply the VBATT_PA and in second time apply VBATT,
never vice versa in this case can be damage the unit.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic
level signal applied to the digital pins of the GL865 when the module is powered OFF or during
an ON/OFF transition.

5.2. Turning OFF the GL865
Turning off of the device can be done in two ways:
•General turn OFF
•Processor turn OFF
General turn OFF – disconnect the power supply from the both power pins VBATT and
VBATT_PA at the same time. In this case all parts of the module are in OFF condition, any
power consumption is present.
Processor turn OFF – disconnect the power supply only from the power pin VBATT, the power
pin VBATT_PA can be connected to power supply, in this case a low, typical 2uA max 20uA,
power consumption is present.
Before any of both OFF procedure will be applied, the AT#SYSHALT AT command must be
send (see AT Commands Reference Guide, 80000ST10025a), after the OK response message,
check the V_AUX / PWRMON pin, when the logic level is low the module can be consider fully
not operating and at this moment is possible disconnect the Power Supply.
The following flow chart shows the proper turnoff procedure:

TIP:
To check if the device has been powered off, the hardware line PWRMON must be monitored.
The device is powered off when PWRMON goes low.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic
level signal applied to the digital pins of the GL865 when the module is powered OFF or during
an ON/OFF transition.

5.3. Resetting the GL865
5.3.1. Hardware Unconditional restart
WARNING:
The hardware unconditional Restart must not be used during normal operation of the device
since it does not detach the device from the network. It shall be kept as an emergency exit
procedure to be done in the rare case that the device gets stacked waiting for some network or
SIM responses.
To unconditionally reboot the GL865, the pad RESET* must be tied low for at least 200
milliseconds and then released.
NOTE:
Do not use any pull up resistor on the RESET* line nor any totem pole digital output. Using pull
up resistor may bring to latch up problems on the GL865 power regulator and improper
functioning of the module. The line RESET* must be connected only in open collector
configuration; the transistor must be connected as close as possible to the RESET* pin.
TIP:
The unconditional hardware restart must always be implemented on the boards and the software
must use it as an emergency exit procedure.
A simple circuit to do it is:
