In your initial post you wrote "I have a Raspberry Pi with LinkUSB and a MS-TV reading DC voltage."

If you have a LinkUSB, you don't connect your 1-Wire devices to a GPIO pin, right? The LinkUSB should not require any pullup at all.

I thought to look at Adafruit product information:
https://www.adafruit.com/products/381
"We toss in a 4.7k resistor, which is required as a pullup from the DATA to VCC line when using the sensor."

Yesterday evening it worked with the 5K resistor. (Actually 5 1K in series.)
This morning I tried with 4K. It didn't work.
With or without the resistor, soon as I connect the DS18B20 the MS-TV device disappears and the DS18B20 is not seen.

I don't know electronics but does this sound like too much resistance is being introduced by the long cable?

Thanks for your reply.

    Where did you read that? Did you try without the resistor?
