Hi Dimas,

I haven't had the time to investigate this issue yet. The manual
describes that you should hold the user button and then press the reset
button. My guess is that upon startup the boomerang software checks
whether the user button is pressed. If so it doesn't perform the normal
start-up procedure but rather puts the mote into sleep-mode.

Independent of how you trigger the shut-down, you'd probably have to
turn off the radio and the external sensors and then put the mote into
sleep-mode. If my understanding of TinyOS is correct, then the processor
should be put into sleep mode automatically if you don't compute anything.

Cheers,
Urs
