Hi

Schematics would be great :)

That was my first idea, that the pin was set to output.

After reading the manual MPR-MIB (link sent by Giri) for the MicaZ it apears 
that:

___________________________________________________________________________
3.  INT2 GPIO Line
MICA I/O signal INT2 (Port E, pin 6 on ATMega128 or 51-pin Hirose connector 
pin
4) is used internally to the MICAz for the CC2420 Radio Receiver FIFO Ready
interrupt. Use of INT2 for any other purpose must be done with care. 
Specifically, the
Port configuration (input, active low) must be restored following use in 
other
software modules.
____________________________________________________________________________

Could exist something similar on the IRIS? In the radio code nothing 
appears....

Regards,

André
