The LinkLocator is now support in the developement version, and will be included in the next release.
LinkLocator is a 1-wire extension of iButtonLink (www.ibuttonlink.com). It is a licensed 3rd party 1-wire device. The LinkLocator sits between a 1-wire device and the 1-wire bus and can provide a 1-wire serial number (in the FE family -- not interfering with any other 1-wire devices). The idea is that the Locator is embedded in a location -- say a particular door, and when A device appears on the 1-wire bus it is possible to see whick location it is located. So how does it work? Each device now has a file "locator" that has the 16character ascii (hex) address. (There is also a r_locator file if you want it in reverse order). In the absence of a locator (say the device is just on the regular old bus) the locator's value is "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF" Paul Alfille Datasheet: http://www.ibuttonlink.com/PDFs/LinkLocator_Users_Manual%20V1.0.pdf _______________________________________________ Owfs-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/owfs-developers
