Sleep Mode

To reduce closed circuit current draw the BC1 enters its sleep mode 16 minutes after switching off terminal R or within two minutes of externally locking the car.

The BC1 will wake up if the ignition is switched from position 0 to position 1 or the BC1 senses a change at one of its monitored inputs.

The K-Bus  will enter a pre-sleep mode if no bus messages are received within 50 seconds and sleep mode if no messages are received in 60 seconds. The BC1 or any module on the K-Bus can initiate a wake-up call.
