To go to Ship Mode, enable ship mode through an I2C transaction to set EN_SHIP_RST bits or the PB_LPRESS_ACTION bits as shown in Figure 5-11:
EN_RST_SHIP = 2b01 (Enable shipmode with wake on button press or adapter insert)
PB_PRESS_ACTION = 2b10 (Enable shipmode)
Enter ship mode by removing VIN if setting EN_RST_SHIP to 2b01. If setting PB_LPRESS_ACTION to 2b10 to enable shipmode, hold the TS/MR button for the configured tLPRESS then remove VIN.
You will know you are in Ship Mode as the voltage on the SYS (SC#2) will fall to 0 V.
