Hi there,
I have the same toppic but using a MKR 1000 with a TMP36.
For trying I took the example "write voltage" by Thingspeak-library in its newest version 1.3.
My Arduino-IDE-version is 1.8.4
Here is the sketch, a little bit modified after the last entry by AugustoEst:
/*
WriteVoltage
Reads an analog voltage from pin 0, and writes it to a channel on ThingSpeak every 20 seconds.
ThingSpeak ( https://www.thingspeak.com ) is an analytic IoT platform service that allows you to aggregate, visualize and
analyze live data streams in the cloud.

float voltage = ((sensorValue * (VOLTAGE_MAX / VOLTAGE_MAXCOUNTS)) - .5 )* 100;
// Write to ThingSpeak. There are up to 8 fields in a channel, allowing you to store up to 8 different
// pieces of information in a channel. Here, we write to field 1.
ThingSpeak.writeField(myChannelNumber, 1, voltage, myWriteAPIKey);
delay(20000); // ThingSpeak will only accept updates every 15 seconds.
WiFi.disconnect();
}
Everything works fine after uploading the sketch. But when I take the MKR 1000 away from my Mac an I make a restart with a mobile-charging-cable, only 2 updates are sent to Thingspeak. What is wrong???
Thanks fpr helping me
