[Tinyos-help] catching a single event from within a component and passing it ou t to my programme? Tos2,Micaz

[Mischa Weise]

Look at the PowerCycle Interface in chips/cc2420/interfaces

Just wire to the PowerCycle Interface of PowerCycleC:
MyAppC.detectiontriggered -> PowerCycleC.PowerCycle

Include the PowerCycle Interface in your implementation and you have 
your event:
event void PowerCycle .detected() {
   // do whatever you want e.g. save the time or increment a counter
}
