   - Baud : 115200
   - Data : 8 Bits
   - Parity : None
   - Stop : 1 Bit
   - Flow Control : None
3. Build and Program the application project using its IDE
4. On board LED starts blinking
5. See the following message in the console
6. Select the option to enter the required Low power mode (LED is turned off when device enters a low power mode)
7. When the device wakes up on RTT alarm, the LED starts blinking and the console displays the following message based on the entered low power mode
   - Waking up from sleep Mode
   - Waking up from wait Mode
   - Waking up from backup Mode
