Power Management
There are four available ways to control the ON/OFF cycle for HPD:
• Computer Communication Cable (USB or Ethernet or Both)
• Front Button Press
• Ignition
• Battery Voltage Level
Note: ONLY Igniton and Battery Voltage are required conditions for the other two to work.
Assuming Ignition is attached to the car's ignition and the Car's ignition is in the ON position, and the power cable is attached to a fully charged Battery, then the following is true:
1 Your Modem will turn ON and stay ON when a
Communication Cable is connected between a poweredup computer (includes standby or sleep modes) with the
HPD modem.
2 Your modem will turn ON and stay ON with the press of the Power Button even If there is no Communication Cable attached or the computer is OFF (or in hibernation mode).
3 If your Modem was turned on via a Power Button Press
(without an active Communication Cable attached), it can be turned OFF via a subsequent Button Press.
Note: This occurs ONLY after your modem has initialized and showing a flashing green LED, which is about 6 seconds after the initial button press.
4 If an active Communication Cable is attached after your modem was turned on via a button Press (without an active Communication Cable attached), it will remain ON from any subsequent button presses.
Note: Your modem will only turn OFF either by removing the communication cable or turning the computer off.

5 Any disconnect of a Communication Cable or turning the computer OFF , will cause HPD to start an off period of 6 seconds before it finally turns off. If the cable is re-attached or the computer is turned back ON during these 6 seconds, HPD will remain on.
6 If the Car Battery Voltage drops below 10V, the modem will turn OFF and stay OFF until Battery voltage is above 10V again.
7 If Ignition is removed, HPD will turn OFF .
