App Lab / Circuit Playgrounf Temp Sensor problems

A student and I are working on troubleshooting his program to use the temperature sensor to make a thermometer app. We can’t seem to get a value from the tempsensor. I am attaching a link to a copy of the program. What are we missing? Any ideas?

Hi @mrowland,

Cool app! Very close to working:) I added a few lines of code:

  1. I changed the way you “get” the temp. Temp just needs to be set to the temperature and not a getProperty.
  2. I also added temp to temp_home so you could see it on the screen.

My lights worked but I didn’t have a way to quickly change the temp dramatically to test if they worked as intended.

Hope that helps!
