turn off active time and go directly to power save mode

Question

Hi all, 
 I am currently trying turning off the active time, so that the nrf9160 immediately goes in power save mode after RRC Connected Release. 
 If I send the command +CPSMS: 1,,,"10101111","11100000" the requested periodic TAU should be 10 minutes and the active time should be deactivated. Am i right? 
 But the nrf9160 never goes in to power save mode..

Hi Visu, 
 
 When setting the active time I think it is best to set it to "0000000" instead of "1110000" if you want it to be zero. I do not think " 1110000" is valid to request but instead is used as a response from the network that the timer is deactivated. 
 e.g 
 AT+CPSMS=1,"","","10101010","00000000" 
 periodic tau= 10min 
 active time = 0 second 
 
 Remember that some networks can have a longer RRC Connected release period than others. Which impacts the time from going from RRC Connected to PSM mode.
