Hi Michael,

First, thanks for your help.

How I can call Sensor.stop()?

I use the sensor through interface Read. Wich looks:

interface Read<val_t> {
  /**
   * Initiates a read of the value.
   *
   * @return SUCCESS if a readDone() event will eventually come back.
   */
  command error_t read();

  /**
   * Signals the completion of the read().
   *
   * @param result SUCCESS if the read() was successful
   * @param val the value that has been read
   */
  event void readDone( error_t result, val_t val );
}

I read tutorials and I don´t see something how Sensor.stop(); or
Sensor.star(); Because if  I use interfaceStdControl for Sensor I think that
I can't read sensor...

Any idea? or I don't need turn off sensor for low power sensing.
