Microcontroller seems to never check gist after first time

Closed this issue · 2 comments

I have everything built and the code is uploaded. However after getting the first message it seems the code just stops checking for the new message. The while loop appears to just stop after the first time (I know this because my code is no longer looking for the lightValue).

Did you end up figuring this out? I seem to be having the same issue

I did.
It turns out it was just taking some time to get the message, say 5 minutes or so. Sometimes shorter, sometimes longer.

I didn't care too much about this because it's only annoying when demonstrating how it works or checking for yourself. In the practical sense the other person won't know when you're sending the message.
