Hi


You can not read the port via GPIO when the port is defined as
External Int. You hav to try clearing the bit until it is accepted.

I do this
 	while( SCB_EXTINT & 0x01 )
             {
 	       SCB_EXTINT = 0x01;
 	      }
       VICVectAddr = serCLEAR_VIC_INTERRUPT;


best regards

John Noergaard
