Park Mode

The Park Mode is when a Bluetooth device is synchronized to the piconet but does not participate in traffic transfer. Parked devices relinquish their AM_ADDR (Active Member Address) address and monitor the master for broadcast messages. The Park mode conserves the most power compared with other power saving modes, Sniff Mode and Hold Mode.
