摘要:
An electronics device (“ED”) includes a housing, a buttons electrical circuit block, at least one user operable button in operable communication with the buttons electrical circuit block, a microcontroller block, and a first-time-on (FTO) electrical circuit block, disposed within the housing. The FTO electrical circuit block includes an activation node and a signal reception contact, and is configured: (i) to place the ED into a deep power conservation mode (“DPCM”) upon either the direct application of an electrical signal to the activation node by an ED or a deactivation signal received at the signal reception contact; (ii) to terminate the DPCM and place the ED into a normal operating mode upon receiving a predetermined user triggered signal from the at least one user operable button; and (ii) to generate the deactivation signal received at the signal reception contact in response to an external command signal received by the microcontroller block.
