Code compiles, board does not run.
Posted: Thu Apr 18, 2019 8:36 amHi guys! My first post here!
I was following some tutorials, trying to send data from soil moisture, DHT22 and LDR to Thingspeak. My first experiment, without the LDR functions very well. But since I need to use it (and try to "multiplex" with the soil moisture sensor, I am getting just a dead board. Absolutely nothing happens after flash the code. The code compiles without any error, and I also tried to find the problem, both in the code and in the board wiring.
Please, could someone give a look? I really don't know why I am doing wrong.
