Hello! I'm pretty new to arduino, i'm using a MKR WiFi 1010 to read values on different sensors (loudness, accelerometer, luminosity, and an electrostatic) and send them via bluetooth to a central (which is my laptop). The code works fine when connected with USB to the PC, but it doesn't work on battery LiPo (i use a 3.7V, 1100mAh). It seems like the board is powered since the ON led in on, but the code doesnt run, not even the setup function. I checked the voltage level in case it didnt deliver enough power or wasn't charged enough but it looks fine. I don't really where the problem could come from, do any of you have an idea what i should look into or where the problem could come from ?
do you have while (!Serial); in setup()?
Hello linadventurous
How do you supply power to the MKR WiFi 1010?
No, i removed it recently as i thought it was the problem. The code now run when connected via usb to another laptop or to a portable battery
Hello! I'm trying to use a LiPo rechargable battery (3.7V, 1100mAh)
Take search engine of your choice and ask the WWW for 'power up MKR WiFi 1010' for a suitable answer for your project.
Thanks for the help! I'll try to see if i can find a solution!
