when i write data to things speak using arduino mkr1000 i sent the data to thingspeak but every time to start data transmission i need to run serial monitor in arduino code.

1 view (last 30 days)
iam attaching the code here and once after uploading the code to arduino and i started serial monitor the values are displayed in thingsspeak but once i try to connect it to a battery /unplug and plug it, i need to again run the serial monitor to view the data in thingsspeak. i would like to use a battery as power supply after uploading the code to arduino.

WriteSingleField
Description: Writes a value to a channel on ThingSpeak every 20 seconds.
Hardware: Arduino MKR1000
!!! IMPORTANT - Modify the secrets.h file for this project with your network connection and ThingSpeak channel details. !!!
Note:
- Requires WiFi101 library version 0.15.3 or newer.
- This example is written for a network using WPA encryption. For WEP or WPA, change the WiFi.begin() call accordingly.
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. Visit https://www.thingspeak.com to sign up for a free account and create a channel.
Documentation for the ThingSpeak Communication Library for Arduino is in the README.md folder where the library was installed.
See https://www.mathworks.com/help/thingspeak/index.html for the full ThingSpeak documentation.
