neoECU devices also have a sleep mode. Sleep mode can be enabled in Function Block scripts using the Sleep step command. Table 1 gives an example Function Block script to enable sleep mode. This script works by checking the present status of a message. If the message is not received when it is expected, the device will go to sleep. When normal traffic is received again, the neoECU will wakeup again.
