Question

Hi,
I am using a brand new device with a mechanical contact switch attached (used as a door sensor).
I was wondering that the battery was empty after a few days.
I did some further investigation on this issue and measured approx. 20mA powered at 9V DC and approx. 12 mA, if powered at 18V DC.
This is a totally unexpected behavior and makes it very hard to use while battery powered.
Is there any way to lower the power consumption (e.g. sleep mode, ...)?
I didn´t find any command related to this issue in the spec.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance for all your time.
BR
