• Have you tried calling the following code again:

    ads.getADC(0, function(val) {
      console.log("Reading: "+val);
    });
    

    The first argument is a value between 0 and 3 (for each input).

    As with other things in Espruino, the code works with a callback (so Espruino can do other things while it's waiting for the ADC). For setting the gain, use the following code, but with the ads.setGain(...), where ... is a value in mv (6144, 4096, 2048, 1024, 512 or 256). The value is the full swing, so 256 = +/- 0.256v
