Teseo-LIV3FL Low Power Mode Not Working

I'm using a Teseo-LIV3FL GNSS module for my project and trying to set the low power mode settings using Teseo-Suite software. Tried using the Low Power settings from the wizard but after get the fix it still draws around 50mA of current.

Expected behavior: After getting a fix it'll go to sleep for certain period of time (around 60s and only draws small amount of current) before logging the data again (periodic low power mode I guess (?))

What is the correct way to achieve the expected behavior?

    Hello, @AFidi.1​ 

    In case if you use an external antenna, Teseo doesn't turns off antenna's power line (X-Nucleo GNSS board with Teseo-liv3f), as I understand. May be it will be usefull to check power consumption without any antenna.

    Also, to turn ON the Low power algorithm you need to set-up the 31 bit of CDB-ID 200:

    $PSTMSETPAR,1200,80E70000,2

    Hi,

    Thank you for your response. Anyway, I've tried using $PSTMLOWPOWERONOFF and now its working as expected.

    However, now I got another issue. I'm trying to set geofence using $PSTMGEOFENCECFG and it says $PSTMGEOFENCECFGERROR*06 and here's the command that I sent to my Teseo.

    0693W00000YAX4uQAH.pngDo you know where did I go wrong? I'm kinda lost since it only says error without any details.
