Hi,
Great software, really making life easier
The problem is that when I want multiple DS1820 sensors updating my ThingSpeak channel, then only one channel/sensor will be updated. The other channel will not be updated.
I have the delay set at 15000 (whatever unit that is).
Funny thing is that sometimes it does work, but other times it does not.

Re: ds1820 ThingSpeak second sensor is not updating
Hi,
I think the problem is that you have two idx values that are set to 1. Make the display have an idx value greater than 8 and see if that help.
Thing speak wants the 8 channels with consecutive numbering starting at 1

I did notice that too, but the documentation states that the IDX value is not being send. But I will try it.dduley wrote:Hi,

(The IDX field will be stuffed with '1', because it's needs a value. But nothing will be send with this device)
Re: ds1820 ThingSpeak second sensor is not updating
You don't need to change the IDX for the display. Using IDX 1 and 2 for the two sensors as in your screenshot is fine.
But you need to set the sensor delay to a value bigger than the amount of sensors multiplied by 15. I would suggest to set it to 60 in this case.
Then you need to set the "message delay" to 15000 in tools/advanced menu. This is the required delay between any two messages that ThingSpeak demands. It will ignore data if it send in a higher frequency.
