About sleep modes
There are two types of sleep mode that the SPARK may go into to conserve
battery charge:
Screen Sleep mode
Screen Sleep mode occurs when the SPARK is running on battery power
and has received no user input for a certain amount of time. The screen
goes dark, but the SPARK will continue to record data (if it is recording).
If the SPARK is recording data, the record buttons continue to flash blue.
Battery Sleep mode
Battery Sleep mode occurs when the SPARK is running on battery power,
has received no user input for a certain amount of time, and is not
recording data. The screen goes dark and power to the sensors is cut off.
The status light flashes green.
