[Always tell us how your code fails, please. If there's an exception include
it and the complete traceback in your post.]
In this case you probably get a NameError because 'entries' is a local
variable in makeform(). In the global namespace the person you copied the
code from used 'ents' -- so you have to either use ents, too,

ents = makeform(root, fields)
...
SR = ents['Sensor_Reading'].get()
or rename it

entries = makeform(root, fields)
...
SR = entries['Sensor_Reading'].get()

Again, the author of the original code probably defined a fetch() function;
if you want to use it you have to copy it into your script.
