Sleep Mode

Sleep mode allows the local repeater receiver to be disabled after a set period of inactivity. The repeater receiver will be re-enabled if the following events occur:

1. An "awaken from sleep" COP command is decoded on any command source

2. There is traffic coming in from a remote node

3. There is telemetry coming in from a remote node.

Additionally, the sleep inactivity timer will be reset if there are any signals on the repeater input which are received during the time the system is awake.
