Abstract
The described method and system provide for reduction of the current draw from a vehicle battery caused by a telematics unit while the vehicle is in transit. By programming the telematics unit with instructions to ignore the awake algorithm or awake parameters while the vehicle is being shipped, or by programming the telematics unit to apply a different set of load-saving awake parameters while the vehicle is being shipped, the current draw from the vehicle battery caused by the telematics unit during shipping can be reduced. The telematics unit may implement a typical awake algorithm or awake parameters (e.g., non-load-saving parameters) after the occurrence of a predetermined trigger, such as the telematics unit determining that the vehicle has reached a destination area.
