Standby modes

Network standby mode

After less than 20 minutes of inactivity, the TC Bar automatically switches to network standby mode, as long as the network interface is no longer in use. The consumption lowers to ≤ 2.00 W.

If none of the connected network interfaces (Ethernet, USB-C, Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi) is in use, the consumption lowers to ≤ 7.00 W.

Network standby mode is activated as soon as the following requirements are met for the interface in question:

There is no active data transfer via Wi-Fi AND
There is no active data transfer via the connected Ethernet connection AND
There is no active data transfer via Bluetooth® AND
No USB-C cable is connected.

Standby mode

As soon as the USB-C® cable is not connected to the device, the USB-C® port is automatically inactive.

The TC Bar automatically switches to standby mode after a maximum of 2.5 hours once all connections are inactive. The consumption lowers to ≤ 0.50 W.

Standby mode is activated as soon as the following requirements are met and the time mentioned above has lapsed:

Bluetooth® is deactivated, or there is no active connection with a paired device AND
Wi-Fi is deactivated, or there is no active connection with a paired network AND
Nothing is connected to the USB-C® port of the TC Bar AND
No Ethernet cable is connected.
