Inaccurate result when combining LM35 + XBee

[cutie_lovely_92]

I am currently doing a project reading Body temperature and pulse sensor that will sent the result wirelessly through XBee.
I started by trying each components separately and everything works fine.

Problem:
Inaccurate result when I combine the XBee and LM35 sensor.
The sensor keep giving the same result. Here's the sketch output.

Code: Select all

LM35 Thermometer
Analog in reading: 1023 - Calculated Temp: 109.8
Analog in reading: 1023 - Calculated Temp: 109.8
Analog in reading: 1023 - Calculated Temp: 109.8
Analog in reading: 1023 - Calculated Temp: 109.8


I am very sure that before combining it with XBee everything works just fine.
Can anyone explain to me what's the problem here?
Do it need any voltage adjustment or something?

Post a photo showing all your connections. And post the code you are using too.

Appears to be wired right. But your raw reading is at max scale. You should contact the seller of the LM35.
