Time Descending
Thingspeak field plots take the system time from your computer. For custom visualizations you can change the time zone in your MATLAB code. You can probably use xticklabel to change the axis or datetime format to change the timezone, but it depends on how you are plotting.
Thanks
I am sending code from an esp8266 to thing speak fields , my code contains daylight savingtime (DST) bit it is an hour out in thingspeak - before the clocks changed (UK) moving forward an hour - the times weere fine but now they asr xhowing plus 1 hour on the graphs
does your answer still apply please and where do I find the MATLAB code
thanks
ThingSpeak will accept timestamps at UTC unless otherwise specified. Are you specifying time zone or offset when you write the data?
I think you will have much better luck if you are more familiar with ThingSpeak operations. Can you please go through the Getting started tutorial? Its a really great overview, and then I will be able to better help you improve your channel further.
For example, I can help you with MATLAB code, but Im not sure you are using custom visualizations or the standard field plots.
I think it is standard field plots
Did the tutorial help you get going with ThingSpeak? Its pretty good.
