RTLIVEV2-MotorsportAndIndustrial / PowerConsumption

RT LIVE v2 power consumption

RT LIVE v2 unit is powered from an external power supply.

The RT LIVE v2 unit is designed so it can be used with either a permanently on power supply, or a power supply that is switched from the ignition switch. To enable this, the unit has 2 power modes:

Full power mode

In this case the unit takes about 4W of power, both GPS and 4G LTE are powered up.

Sleep mode

If the unit is not logging any data, all runs have been uploaded, and the unit has not sensed any movement for 10 minutes, then it will go into a sleep mode.

In this mode the GPS and 4G LTE are powered down, and the CPU goes into a special low power mode. In Sleep mode the RT LIVE v2 unit only requires about 0.1W. The RT LIVE v2 unit will go from sleep mode to full power mode if it detects any movement.


Please note that if “Always log when powered” option selected, device is always logging and uploading run data to server.
For this mode the unit MUST be connected to a supply that is switched with ignition.
