Re: [Owfs-developers] Owfs interface to consumer wireless rf devices

2011-10-19 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I see.
The offer, (if it can be called that) still stands.

For what I am working on, I suspect I might need similar technological
advanced means of working with different examples of interfaces. And before
anyone asks, it is a method of sending data to, and then from, a Palm
running this application http://palmorb.sf.net it emulates an incredibly
expensive serial enabled LCD display. It happens that I'm using a BASIC
Stamp this time for my studies. I've also used it with its intended purpose
of displaying data from the applications described on the site.

The other problems are ongoing. I'm still interested in One Wire technology
of course Paul, but that's an ongoing project.

It's also been discontinued. They haven't announced what will be replacing it,

Re: [Owfs-developers] [SOLVED] Dreaded 85 degrees C read from DS18B20 located outside

2011-03-10 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Doug that has been a work in progress ever since the technology was first
announced. That is the ability to sense temperature using a semiconductor
device. And incidentally read the data back to software and the host in a
timely fashion.

For example if any of us have here DS1820 devices, without the B in the name
and an early date code, then they won't work properly because of most of
those issues.

Re: [Owfs-developers] USB9097 USB--1-wire Converter Experience

2011-02-14 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Thank you Paul. Here's where it gets stranger, and even stranger then that.
Before posting that one, I went back and read that site a second time. I
immediately wanted to contact them and complain. However I knew from
previous experience that the firm wouldn't care, and would not even bother
to read their e-mail on the subject.

Marc if you really want a dirt cheap serial adapter for a USB port that
would enable proper feed-through for the Dallas Semiconductor designed
adaptors, the ones from FTDI come highly recommended. I use one here for my
Parallax BASIC Stamp projects. I've also used one for exploring features of
the DS2423, and that's because the program from Maxim-IC for the laptop
doesn't do the original programs justice.

They use those adapters for all of their chipsets. You can also buy them
from Sparkfun. Incidentally if you tell them that a current customer
recommended them you will get excellent service.

Now group if anyone needs an FTDI based adapter for slinging RS232 signals
to the DS9097 type adapters I am willing to make them up using the
appropriate Sparkfun adapter and a DB9 style connector, at the cost of
assembly.

Nominal fees are applied for the purpose of obtaining the raw materials of
course, but these can be negotiated.

Currently these things are only for the use within this country.

Hello!
Paul you are quite correct there. The basic styles are indeed as you've
described. The standard controller can only make use of the 16x20 style. The
larger ones would use either two controllers, appropriately wired, or even a
custom designed controller.

Take a look at the pages in the current Jameco catalog on that subject, or

Incidentally what is the brains behind the Hobby boards configuration? Is it

Re: [Owfs-developers] Permissions problems with usb as root???

2009-11-30 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Jim, your settings resemble an interesting issue that first turned up on of
all things Debian, the udev method of assigning and managing ports.

Check to see how it on your new system is managing things. Then see how it
is working on a setup that was built the exact same way. Keep doing it that
way across your collection of systems who're all running the same operating
system.

Even though I am running Slackware and indeed using the most recent release
I do not believe I can actually reproduce your problem here. That
functionality here has always behaved itself.

Re: [Owfs-developers] DS9490 reconnect on 2.7p27

2009-11-03 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I agree. This issue will take further investigation.

However... Mike what are you running this under? Is it on Linux? What
distribution? Did you build everything from source? Or did you use the
pre-built RPM files? I need more data to make up my mind before trying
something.

Paul as I recall you started off using SuSe for your building; sometimes
you'd setup a virtual machine to study other problems. Has this changed?

I normally use Slackware Linux here. So that may or may not be a clew. I
also recall that I'm not the only user of this particular distribution.

I can reproduce your bug by unplugging and replugging the DS9490R. It also
seems like the adapter is closed and reopened successfully. Something
clearly isn't working correctly, and it will take further investigation.

Hi,

I tried to get my setups from 2.7p21 (cvs-snapshot from 2009-06-04) to the
current CVS-version.
Now this still gives me two big problems:

1. reconnecting the DS9490 doesn't work anymore, this worked with p21 (even
though not under all circumstances). I have to admit this matters only on
lousy buses, i.e. too long, but I have one bus "maxed out" as far as
possible to be able to do some regression-testing on what could happen in
the field..
With p21 owserver syslogged "reconnecting bad adapter" (max: 32/hour) and
things were fine, in p27 all devices disapear, requests hang forever..

2. when owserver hangs (i.e. by removing the USB-adapter physically), any
request to it with owget (or similar) hangs forever. The previous behaviour,
return nothing, was much better IMHO..

I created some workaround in my logger-app now, restarting owserver when an
81.xx adapter disappears but that's probably no real solution..


Please let me know if I should create debug-logs, and if yes which. It's
currently reproducable, although not within minutes..

Re: [Owfs-developers] Java and OWFS?

Hello!
Paul, wasn’t there some discussion of using the Google Applications Engine
(Google App Engine) for displaying and managing publicly viewable data for
the sensors? This would be managed via a Java based applications layer as I

This came up before the RRD database creation and management of same, and
the graphing for that as well.

It should work.  As always, it takes someone with an interest in embarking
on the project. The swig tempplate ow.i, is very simple, but not at all

There are also two packages using owserver and a java network client
(OWNET.java and jowfsclient)

[Owfs-developers] Interesting issues

2009-08-05 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Hack A Day http://hackaday.com is currently running one individual's
application of OWFS on an Ubuntu based system. The release he chose is OWFS
is 2.7p14, or at least that's the version he found roosting on the servers
for Ubuntu / Debian. He complained that the Perl version for them was also
dated and needed to change things to accommodate them.

What version is the Debian repository up to at the moment? We've got 2.7p24
out at the moment and I was reasonably sure that the servers had been
updated by now.

Next when I visited a Source Forge mirror to download the tar file
containing the source code for 2.7p24 I had discovered that the directory
was revised. Paul was this you're doing? It makes sense.

[Owfs-developers] I2C and One-Wire and OWFS

2009-06-24 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
In a book I have here on Linux and Robotics, the author proposes using
One-Wire sensors to do something specific. He accesses them then using the
DS2482 via the SMB bus which besides being a subset or even a superset of
the I2C bus resides on the DIMM connectors.

I believe he's using the drivers from the Linux Sensors project for managing
thermal issues on the motherboard via the Linux Kernel. Strangely enough
he's not even aware of the OWFS project for controlling these sensors, but
he is using one of the Linux aware methods for One-Wire uses.

Now my question, how did one of us make use of the features on the DS2482 on
or around a motherboard to control the One-Wire access methods? 

I should mention I do have a new project in the works using OWFS to control
an application, in this case the DS2406 switches, and assorted logic.

Paul if your curious regarding about the book, remind me off list and I'll
track it down, it's hiding someplace, and I'll grab it and post the title in
a response to the public discussion of this message.

Re: [Owfs-developers] New problem building from CVS

2009-06-22 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Well I am off and running. So far the software items that I've used work
exactly as advertised. The TCL based owmon (Question? Is it indeed TCL
based? I saw the interpreter running via netstat and that's the question
there.) works. I even got owfs first to work, and the owserver wants to work
properly.

And the webserver owhttpd works via the owserver when the proper names and
ports are given, and of course adapter names as well.

My one problem is that each time I ran the man pages for the programs I'd
get several errors spat out from my interpreter for reading man pages. And
this is consistent, it happens all during the versions.

So we can update the website and mention that Slackware 12.1 works with
these versions.

Actually Paul you've already outlined the first part of the problem. Also
it's solution. You need to disable SElinux in your FC9 image. I imagine that

Where as for some silly reason that the program inside FC9 is openly hostile

Subject: Re: [Owfs-developers] USB problems: error reading ret=-110

I've been doing some experimentation (without success, however).

This is Fedora 9 under vmware (OpenSuse host).

If usb is enabled in the configuration, the DS9490 is seen by the guest OS,
but captured by the w1 system. I think that SElinux stops owfs from unloaded
the module, so I had to perform `/sbin/rmmod ds2490` as root.

I then get the same error messages you get, which is 110=ETIMEOUT in
usb_interrupt_read.

I tried increasing the timeout (figuring that the host-to-guest process was
slow) either in the code, or under /settings/timeout/usb with no success.

So the remaining piece is the Damn Small Linux working. I'm not sure how to
approach this problem.

That's interesting. The live cd uses a 2.4 kernel and an older version of
owfs, but at least it is possible.

Re: [Owfs-developers] How do we access CVS?

2009-03-12 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul, how difficult is it to setup an SVN storage arrangement?
The point being, what happens if we need to setup a whole new revision
control service storage setup? For me I can either pull something from SVN
far easier then from CVS.

And I've suffered a disk crash, it's painful but expected. 

Incidentally the first generation disk drives that were of 1 Gigabyte size
were as it happens to last one year. I had my system wearing one and running
for five years. It fell flat on it's, ah, face, this time nine years ago. I
spent the following Tuesday, which was again the 17th visiting a certain big
store here trying to buy a box. It didn't work, and that's how I've got this
guy here.

Hello!
This is getting strangely baroque. Shortly after I posted mine, and saw your

on the NSLU2 lists concerning the exact same issues.

Eventually it evolved into something that wasn't exactly resolved, but it

They have been battering around this issue ever since the firm made the bad
decision to discontinue that device.

And thank you Mark for confirming my theories regarding the OpenWRT hardware

Ideally it can become a replacement device for the PC left on in the house

There is a writeup on Linux Devices as well.:

Sounds like the processor is ARM-based (88F6281) which OWFS has been ported
to in the past.

The RAM (512M) is more than enough. It looks like there is both USB and
(with some fiddling) serial ports, as well as some GPIO pins and a spare
serial line for the hardware inclined.

If there is interest, we could access the GPIO pins with w1 or write support
directly.

Most impressively, there is complete documentation freely available, as well
as instructions for linux installation and cross compiling.

[Owfs-developers] Questions. and more questions

2008-12-13 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I note with surprise that version 2.7p9 was released. But I don't recall
seeing an announcement for this version. Why? What has happened to cause
this? 

I also note that it builds properly and without any complaints on
Slackware-12.1 as it happens. I also note that it also supports the one-wire
framework included in the 2.6 series kernel.

Next question:
In Linux Journal magazine, an individual worked to convince a controller for
a Nintendo WII game, the master one as it happens, to work with his laptop.
Can someone suggest how convince (or confuse) such a device to work with an
attached one-wire system?

Please note that I do not have the controller, or the Bluetooth dongle,
that's next on my to do list.

Anyway it was at least the price of the thing from Acer, (US prices not your

Re: [Owfs-developers] RJ11 to RJ45 Cable

2008-11-15 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I've made cables as well. I got into the habit when I discovered that the
basic phone cable, as the ones from RS (From which I bought my connecters
and the crimper) were wired reversed. That is one connector was installed
upside down from the other.

I keep my one-wire cables separate from the ones designated as phone wire
only cables. It also happens that Jameco, (www.jameco.com) at one time had
in their catalog a description of the different styles behind how to wire an
RJ11 cable.

Please note, Paul, and Donald, that there are two distinct styles regarding
the RJ45. One includes Ethernet and has the eight leads wired straight
through, and one includes the phones that roost on office desks, and they do
not have straight through wiring, unless that one is a VOIP service phone.

Now if one of our members is interested in a conversion box that translates
the one-wire connection from the USB fob that Maxim sells, to an RJ45;
itself also wearing a one-wire device, namely a DS2401, then I am
interested.

Fees for such a beast are negotiable, it will probably include the cost of
materials, and shipping, but not the costs for my time and labor.

Subject: Re: [Owfs-developers] RJ11 to RJ45 Cable

I've made cables. There are two sizes of modular plugs, the telephone
size(RJ-11), and the ethernet size(RJ-45). The Telephone size can link up to
6 wires, but standard telephones use only 1 or 2 pairs, and cross over the
pairs which can make off-the-shelf cables tricky. I've taken to marking the
ends of my straight-through RJ11 cables to distiguish them from telephone
cables.

RJ45 is almost always straight-thru, thank goodness, and always have all 8
wires connected. Not all 1-wire devices have an RJ45 female port, many use
the smaller RJ11 size. I hope that we'll switch to all rj45 in the future,
the incremental cost is truly negligable, and buying off-the-shelf cables is
a big win!

Now if you are noting the the wires, themselves, don't fit in the crimp-on
rj11 connector, that's happened to me. There are different designs for those
connectors that give more or less room. Quite a nuisance.

There is no such thing as a three wire connector in standard modular telco
jacks.   Telco always uses pairs so you have to get a four wire or six wire
connector at least.  RJ14 or RJ25.  The RJ45 8wire is a physically wider
connector.  The 4 or 6 wire connectors are the same width and are some times
coded for the number of positions & connectors.  RJ11 is by defination only
2 conductors and would not work here.

And this may vary depending on the country you are in.

Re: [Owfs-developers] [Owfs-forums] [owfs - Help] Single i2c bus, but multiple DS2482-800

2008-08-08 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul that maybe true, but the original, read designed by Phillips version of
the I2C bus actually allows for multiple devices, each gets a unique
address, and the address byte is part of the communications protocol.

In fact that's how the SMB bus manages to figure out what things the system
needs to worry about, and promptly does that. In that case the addresses are
assigned at creation time for the things, and off it goes.

Ideally unless absolutely necessary your DS2482-800 device should be a
single one, with multiple One-Wire parts attached, obviously without knowing
more, we can't help you.

And this presupposes he's reading the archives, and will be joining the list
RSN.

Re: [Owfs-developers] PL2303 & DS9097U Don't commuicate

2008-06-15 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul, William this is an area I do know enough about.

Primarily the PL2303 adapter was targeted towards communicating with
cell-phones, and PDA devices, and yes your X10 device, William, and a few
odd other things.

The big problem is that they do not properly implement the line control
lines, so the adapter doesn't produce the voltages that the DS9097U is
looking for.

However the ones from FTDI, either available from the company store, or from
Parallax, at www.parallaxinc.com are in fact properly configured. (It
happens that's the recommended device adapter for the Parallax BASIC stamp
devices.)

Also according to the group first at Dallas Semiconductor, then with Maxim,
the U on the part number indicates that it's wearing a DS2502 both for
identifying the device and for possibly configuring it as a one-wire enabled
specialty memory device.

I got into that part of the problems we constantly face back when the whole
business was still sorting itself out and we had a list to complain to, not
a web based forum which ignored me.

However Paul you are indeed on the right track here. William do indeed
search around for that type serial adapter, and then read the issues
regarding one on the NSLU2 list for what happened to an enterprising person
who built his own CPU and thence decided to use the aforementioned to gizmo
to talk to the CPU and forward its activities to the local area network in
his home, and finally the Internet. (For that you might need to join the
list and need a annoying Yahoo ID to do the web viewing things.)

Re: [Owfs-developers] Expanding rrdtool graphing options -help needed

2008-05-30 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I am quite impressed.
My problem? I've downloaded and built rrdtool numerous times, and naturally
I've got one big problem. How to properly use it. Ideally I wanted to use
the temp sensor thing to log the temp inside my apartment, and naturally
thrown in a few graphs, but naturally I've not even a clew how to configure
it.

Wire it sure. Configure it on the system end, no.

Subject: [Owfs-developers] Expanding rrdtool graphing options -help needed

Hi,
 
I have been looking at some front end tools available for the rrdtool
database and graphing options.  
 
I suspect a lot of us use rrdtool graph to display our data and if like me
just generate png files to view.  Now some of the rrdtool front ends provide
some really nice features like being able to dynamically zoom into a graph
by drawing a box around the data and hey presto a new graph is generated of
just that area.
 
Now these tools generally have a huge footprint, menu structures and
performance gathering engines.  I am talking about cacti or smokeping.
 
I am told the smokeping zip file has the “js”files and these could be used
to just make the zoomable graphs with the help of a cgi file that generates
the graphs on the fly, however its beyond my skill set.  I was wondering if
anybody has explored making rrdtool graphs zoomable for our type of usage,
ie trending real time data temperature humidity etc etc
 
Just drag the cursor over this graph and you will see what I mean….

[Owfs-developers] Three issues in need of answers

2008-05-06 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul what is the oldest of the 2.4 series of Linux kernels that will support
both the FUSE module, and the OWFS routines, as applied to the serial
devices for the One Wire devices?

And next, "Paul, are you aware that we are running against the quota as used
by Sourceforge?" There's a note regarding that issue on my user's account
e-mail address.

And this is a general question, would anyone know when Dallas Semiconductor
and Maxim decided to discontinue the Java enabled family of buttons? I asked
them directly about this, but naturally no one there had the answer to hand
as it were.

[Owfs-developers] DS2423 support

2008-04-28 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul, all of this discussion surrounding issues for the DS2413 reminds me of
the problems I had earlier for the DS2423 device. 

Would it be safe to state that support for that gizmo is firmly installed in
the latest release, (both numbered and available as a download, and from
CVS) for our product?

I've got a few ideas taking shape that will probably require one, plus a few
DS2406 devices, which I've always gotten to work without any problems.

Re: [Owfs-developers] DS2413 problem

2008-04-22 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Same here allowing of course for the illogic of Daylight Savings Time.

Incidentally, Paul, when I wrote that blurb about the GPIO points on the
DS2413, I was actually thinking of my problems with the DS2423, since that
part behaves stranger then some feline members of society, I figured that
given our problems in general with parts that have these connections, all
would be helpful.

I really need to find my DS2413 and study how it is wearing the pins to the
outside, and importantly enough what style case they chose.

Of course the difficulty lies within soldering down a SMT part, when this is
a through the hole shop

Hello!
Paul, Alessio, I am not sure that the DS2413 is configured to allow that to
happen. Its GPIO points, actually input only ones, although the company
calls them GPIO in their literature, are designed to respond to events on
those lines. Suggestions are given on the datasheet for this widget.

Although I have gotten good results using the classic SSR to control one
line, and using an earlier release of OWFS.

Hi I am not sure how to properly control the DS2413. I use it to control

I basically have to "open" or "close" the output pins; I can do it with

but not with PIO.A or PIO.B

I will explain better:
writing to PIO.A or PIO.B is useless. It just doesn't work.
If I write the correct bits to PIO.BYTE then ok, I can control the two
channels; anyway, if I read PIO.BYTE, it's always like the outputs are
always conducting.

This is a problem for me because I have to control the two relays
independently; if I cannot read the status from PIO.BYTE or simply use
PIO.A/B, I would need a "proxy" application that remembers the current
status and sets the bit accordingly.

Subject: [Owfs-developers] DS2405 Digital output on after power failure

After a number of power failures this weekend, one of my DS2405 decided to
turn on its output when it the system powered backup.  (it was NOT on before
the system went down)  My read/write script for DS2405 does not auto start
thus I put it down to some type of external glitch.  In my case these DS2405
turn solenoid valves on/off however I have another DS2405 that enables the
24VDC field power, thus I need two outputs ON before anything will happen. 
This was as a safety precaution when I built the system.

 
This post really has nothing to do with OWFS…however an observation of 1wire
device behavior and a word of caution.  I have tried to replicate the
problem by cycling power a number of times however unable to replicate the
problem.

Re: [Owfs-developers] 1WRJ45 Standard(?)

2008-04-07 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Eric will probably react properly at this, but AAG has never really followed
anyone's standards, except their own. There are also complaints regarding
their products not, that's right not, working with software from other
vendors.

Whereas, the Hobby Boards products have a very good track record of working
with everyone's software. And this does include ours, in fact it would be
proper to say that ours is what spurred the creation of Hobby Board's great
ideas, but that's my opinion only.

Historically, Maxim has shied away from a working standard regarding the way
to connect to the hardware. They do ship things with RJ11 devices attached,
and normally we would create something to translate from one to the other.

Tom a suggestion, it should then includes both. And then make it a jumper
supported option.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Fwd: Simple perl program

2008-03-13 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I basically can't add anything else to what you've written here, Jan, you
have done something very good in creating that explanation. But I shall take
a stab at it.

When a webserver is launched on Linux it typically starts off as root, then
it drops to its own user name. This is to protect both the machine and the
normally registered users of the machine. On my box it is the favorite of
Apache "nobody", but other distributions probably select their own. And
indeed on this one, that's the case. 

It started off exactly as described.

The decision to use the one user described, ""wwwrun", is written into the
code for the one on the NSLU2 someplace.

Jan, on your next coffee break down two on me.

Re: [Owfs-developers] ds9490, usb_bulk_read timeout on RH ES5

2008-02-23 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Yes, Paul, you are indeed correct concerning the version names. That's the
latest incarnation of what RH was giving away for free once. Now you get a
box of the code on one DVD or many separate CDs, and they require the user
to arrange for support via a paid-for contract.

The big problem is that the work station release rarely works properly as
regards sound on one particular family of systems. George check the release
versions of udev on your working system versus anything available from RH.
Complain to them.

And here's the really funny part. Anything that makes sense in the Fedora
Core project's efforts as they create release after release as a "rolling
beta" ends up getting released as a new version of the Enterprise series.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Problems with AAG TAI8558/DS2408 and DS9097U

2008-02-18 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Not really. The 1-wire hardware was available from DS at the same time that
Ethernet was doing its thing on RJ45 based thin-net networking stuff. 

That same multi-pair cable is also used for phone wiring.

I should also mention that phone wire RJ11/RJ12 ones are available both
twisted and untwisted. The majority of phone wire examples I have here
happen to be largely twisted, so I normally end up making up my own for the
One-Wire stuff I do.

Not surprisingly I also do not twist the ones I make up for phone functions.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Simple program switching a DS2405??!

2008-01-20 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
He's got the right idea. Problem is that the DS2405 is more difficult to
program then say the DS2406. He also doesn't say which of the temperature
sensing ones he used as well. (DS1820 family member?)

We'd then next have to see his Perl code to see what's happening and
possibly try it for ourselves to find out what's wrong if anything, and then
why it's doing what its doing.

At least he chose a good embedded platform. There have been several articles
on the list for that thing discussing the one wire applications for it, most
notably the one wire weather station project. 

However the one wire on NSLU2 device applications suffers from a dearth of
documentation, unlike the one wire on a router such as the family from
LinkSys. Those things do not have that problem oddly enough. The
documentation for them was properly worked out and even well written.

Granted the people who make that former idea work as opposed to the latter
do document what they've done, and it is discussed on the list for the
NSLU2, but there we've got another problem. That of the classic problem of
how to ask the right questions.

Hello sourceforge community!

This is my first mail directly to you, and I hope, someone here can help me
(Please)!!

I?m a newbie in all this 1-wire things and Unix. I have a DS2405 which I
want to control with the help of the NSLU2 from a web browser. With
hardware, I have no problem (since I?m an analog designer), but with
software, hehe!
Here is my status, what is working and what not:
What?s already functioning now, are the commands:
"owwrite 05.24302C00/PIO 1"
"owwrite 05.24302C00/PIO 0"
I can see this DS2405 also in the web browser of the owfs written by Paul
Alfille ( http://192.168.1.77:3001/Serial_Number_of_device). Unfortunately,
the PIO changes only from ?off? to ?on?. I also tried the perl temperature
reading program by Paul Alfille. Over the web browser, I can see the
temperature, but the program running on the NSLU2 gives back an error
message.

However, I have absolutely no idea about is how I do this web browser
connection by MYSELF. Yes, in principle, this web browser from Paul does
exactly the same thing I want, but with the difference that all this is
somewhere written and distributed in the 10 files of this owfs. So what
I badly would need is a VERY SIMPLE program which does change the output of
the DS2405 when clicking with the mouse. But now, everything is integrated
somehow (and I cannot follow how) in this large owfs. I have to start with a
very simple program and then, it should be no problem for me to add some
code to make more functions I want.

What I want at the end is making a water plant system: The NSLU over the
1-wire measures the water level on a plant and controls a DS2405 which
controls a valve to water it. This system should run on itself and for
maintanance or for adding a plant I want to connect the computer and see on
the web browser which plant got how much water and so on.

And now I beg if anyone could be so nice and write me this very little
program which does the following: When I click with the mouse on the button
?ON?, this DS2405 should switch on, when I click on the button ?OFF?. For
me, it is important that it is a very simple program, consisting only of
some lines (I heard, perl would be good). As I said, it?s no problem for me
to continue by myself and enlarge this little program with more functions
etc., but now, I have absolutely no idea how to start. I tried already some
perl programs (e.g. reading the temperature from a DS

THANK YOU in advance for your willingness to help me!!

Hello!

Tilman, I admit your problem interests me. Why don't you also post a
schematic of your design? By showing it we could help you deduce what's

This is one of the difficult cases of "it works for me, but not you."
I just tested an authentic DS9097U

I guess the first question is do you have other proof that your adapter
functions correctly?

Also I'm embarrassed to admit that msec_read is no longer implemented
(despite being in the man page). It is now --timeout_serial
As just the easiest test, can you try with that parameter? (Still, using

Re: [Owfs-developers] Pressure sensing and One Wire sensors

2007-12-04 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Of course it would have made more sense to state that fact. These are the
MPX family of sensors first made by Motorola during the beginning of the
MEMS ideas, now made by Freescale, in fact this pair is the MPX12D type.

Your suggestion regarding a board designed by HobbyBoards, and making use of
a DS2438 and an Instrumentation Amplifier, the INA122, is in fact an
excellent one. And one I shall certainly be investigating.

Certainly Matthias, your advice is worth plenty of credit here, (your
choice!), I suggest on your next coffee break, you have a cup on me. We'll
work out the details the next time you are visiting this country.

I've just added a page to the website reviewing all the voltage sensors:
http://owfs.org/index.php?page=voltage-measurement

Basically, it depends on the voltage range, resolution, speed and other
features you want. 

Voltage ranges up to 10V, and resolution down to 1.5 uV.

Hello!
Eric, like you I'm an ordinary user, and sometimes a developer. Of hardware.
So I suggest you revert back to the working version for your OpenWRT enabled
LinkSys box, and continue with it. However unless you do your own
development for the unit, and can make your own binaries then I would
suggest to debug the issue and naturally report back here with the obvious
solutions and a properly formatted patch.

Paul we've got a problem here with these. While I do not use the LCD
interface routines, I will be ready to be able to test 2.6p7 for this
ongoing issue, naturally talking to regular One-Wire hardware. I'll know
more in a few more days.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Writing to DS2406

2007-10-01 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I believe I am missing something here. Jim you, and your staff (I presume
you have one because of the EE and his scope.) did all of that with a
DS9490R and successful.

What about using the passive version of the DS9097? (And of course I do not
recall the full number for this gizmo, just the specific name for it.) Of
course this presupposes that you do have a legacy serial port available, and
that one of the DS9097s for such a function is indeed available.

I can see where installing specific information into a DS2406 or the Unique
Ware devices for a specific project. And then including routines in your
code to read them back and including functions for accessing them via both
forms are also needful and necessary. 

But then again this is just me.

Subject: Pictures stolen!

   Someone came in, in the dead of night (well, about 23:30 local time) 
and stole your main photo of a bunch of sensors from the old site.  You
have two options:

  1. Call in the lawyers demanding payment
  2. Thank me for spreading the word.  :>

  I wanted to add my things to the Ubuntu Community stuff, and your 
picture now lives here:

  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/1wire

  Tonight I spent time summarizing the hardware, in case it'll whet the
appetite of other would-be hackers in their midst. The next section will 
be 1WireSoftware, where your OWFS tools will be a main part.  And before
long I'll actually post my Perl-based tool for the trailer.

  The cool thing is, everyone who's interested can update these pages; 
I'll be made aware when they are. And with it, we might just wind up
enlarging the 1wire-aware community, aye?

  Thanks again for the help!

Re: [Owfs-developers] DS2423 - "Data Error"

2007-08-08 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul, David, (welcome to the group by the way.), the DS2423 counter chip is
a strange animal. It requires an external power supply to run it. Also it
requires specialized devices attached to its counter inputs, the data sheet
specifies them, but essentially a mechanical reed switch will do that. If
its not powered or the switches stay open for an extended period then
everything looks worse then an aircraft in a stall situation.

Oh and David, you've just made one of the first generation problems new
again. That was my first big problem, how to apply the DS2423 without
looking lost or problematic. I still haven't resolved it.

[Owfs-developers] Bounce score is increasing not decreasing

2007-07-21 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Are all of receive those statements noting that my bounce score claims to be
increasing, not decreasing? (And please send them!)That is decidedly
fallacious as there has been absolutely nothing with the mail servers at my
end at all for the past three weeks.

I freely admit that since AT&T and SBC got together their collective
abilities to manage their end of the Internet have been slightly less then
capable, but that is definitely not going on. Not now, and most definitely
not at all.

I do know that when a bounce score reaches the 5.0 level the subscriber
isn't. Therefore I am requesting a manual reset, or failing that, having one
of you both complain to the clowns at Source Forge who've temporarily
replaced the good people over there do that.

[Owfs-developers] Bounce question

2007-07-18 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul, I just checked as to why I did not get a copy of my posting concerning
Slackware-11.0 from my primary list ID. (This one.) It seems that something
happened on Tuesday that caused the list processor to disable the sending of
any messages to me, on such and such a date, until just a few minutes ago,
when I reset it.

Can you post privately the entire bounce report that I do know that the list
processor sent you? (And probably anyone else who manages the list.)

It happens that from Saturday night late until Tuesday afternoon, my network
connection was disabled thanks to a three-fold issue. However there was
plenty of room in my inbox for e-mail messages of all kinds.

And of course here is the reason I need to bring it to the attention of the
crew at AT&T who manage such things. I know that Source Forge is managed by
professionals, not the crowd who lurks inside Yahoo.

[Owfs-developers] I've got some very beta Slackware packages soon to be available for OWFS

2007-07-18 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I am currently creating stuff for a demonstration that revolves around
something based on Slackware-11.0 and a pair of laptops.

For it I created a pair of packages of the entire OWFS collection, and also
the FUSE one, I chose 2.5.3 for the FUSE one. After some light testing here,
I'll know if this series works. It usually does, but one never knows. My big
problem will be in creating the description files that typically travel
along with these packages. Once both are done, and the busy work regarding
the demo is finished, and it does happen, my next step will be to offer them
to the list. (Plus anyone else who does run Slackware and has not said so
officially on this list.)

Paul, (and everyone else), how would you like these packages delivered?

Paul if you want to know why I went through all of this effort, please
contact me off list, it is too complicated to go into right now.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Bus Masters

2007-04-26 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
To quote a friend in a different venue, "It depends.". 
Essentially, if you are planning on using OWFS as part of a setup running on
a Linux enabled router, then the serial device would be my best advice.
However some of the later ones do support USB.

For one such device, not a router, but it does run Linux and several
applications outside of OWFS have been ported to it, people have been using
both. To use USB there, you'd just plug the USB device into one port of the
device, and the disk into the other. This is the NSLU2 unit.

Now if you are running OWFS on a full featured system who's dedicated to
running OWFS plus a few thousand other necessary applications, then it's
really your call. Some functions work best with the serial devices, and some
work best with the USB one.

This is also largely dependent on your distribution. From one point of view,
mine, I typically end up building everything from source, because Slackware
does not support any available packaging scheme except the compressed tar
file format.

Re: [Owfs-developers] LCD / AAGelectronica design

2007-01-31 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul, everyone, can all of you describe, or better yet, point me to the
schematic for the Hobby Boards design?

While I believe it can be done using the DS2408, which is what both firms
have chosen, however I believe it can be redone in a better style using the
DS2406, specifically the two switch per device arrangement.

Let's just say it's my "Miracle Worker" nature coming out on this one. My
one problem with the DS2406, duo device, will be mounting them. I obtained
one a while ago, and had a little problem with it, and was able to hand
solder it down. So far the sleds that have been made up for the SMT package
styles do not match the one created by Maxim for the TSOC style.

I actually did speak with a representative with Jameco concerning this
issue, and he found it to be an interesting one. No such look having them
commission a new series of sleds specifically for the TSOC style.

[Owfs-developers] Hobby Boards questions

2006-12-05 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
That series of issues with the LCD display device that Hobby Boards
developed independently of Maxim brought to mind an interesting issue. 

For example what boards made by them are directly supported? And what boards
are an inference? Consider this, the company (Hobby Boards) makes a gizmo
who will lend One Wire support to a conventional LCD display exactly as if
it were installed in the same housing as the one to which the both of you
were discussing support issues for.

Re: [Owfs-developers] What's with all the spam in the OWFS list lately?

2006-10-30 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Not possible on that suggestion. Spammers multiply faster then rabbits. As
to your comment about having to be a member of a list to be able to send to
it, you are quite correct. An investigation is in order to sort out why and
prevent it from happening. Especially since there is a theme, all of them
are about made up companies and their made up stocks.

I have a better suggestion, lets all permanently switch to using plain text
on our mail programs, and then have the list service reject everything sent
in HTML format. (I don't know if you have noticed Scott, but all of those
annoying items were sent that way and contained an embedded image. Which was
the stupid message. The moronic text was supposed to annoy the perennially
broken filtering methods that some programs use. Then see my next line why.)


Also we could have the service configured to reject attachments. Anyone who
is a member who needs to send one, such as a patch, would need to send a
reminder to one of the regular developers first, and the list Owner.

Who by rights should be managing the list properly to prevent that spamming
problem from happening.

While of the people there is famous for his rudeness and extreme lack of the
social grace and everything we take for granted on this planet, he's really

Actually no. But my build happened on a prerelease of Slackware 11.0, to

Hello!
How many switches can OWFS support directly? These are the DS2406
style device by the way. And no I haven't built the actual hardware,
that comes later.

It's just that with the release of the DS2408 and many successful
applications of the thing, I just can't recall my question ever coming
up in discussions. And Paul this includes the original One-Wire
discussion that ran on the list supplied by Dallas Semi before they
made the ill-fated decision to switch to a forum rather then continue
with the list ideas.

For example, I have an idea of reasonable capabilities that would
involve using these switches to generate a pattern to be written to
yes a character displaying LCD display (Company name and part number
to be chosen later) but I'd rather not go down this path if it won't
work.

In fact I even don't recall the actual number of supported devices
being discussed anyplace surfacing. I believe the number is limited to
the way the network is accessed, but that's an opinion only.

It's amazing what happens to a person's memory when that person gets
to be the same age as Master Yoda. (Joke!)

Re: [Owfs-developers] violence

2006-09-19 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
It, ah, isn't that easy. The message quoted below, might have come from a
zombie, in this case someone's computer that was contaminated with an agent
or agents to run as a proxy service for sending out that junk. Which is as
it happens to be right now the usual practice. However Here's where it
gets more confusing. They may be doing it themselves. And in that case, by
writing to the abuse desk of the ISP involved with this stunt, one of two
things will happen. One will be that the boob who's contaminated will be
taken offline until such time as it is cleaned. Or they will be taken
offline.

And as it happens that message constitutes number four. All of them as
you've noted are sending out statements promoting stocks that do not exist.
What we need at Source Forge is stronger anti-spam methods. And naturally
open source ones. I would rather send the entire collection of spammers to
two places, Siberia in the winter is one place. And the other is Kessel.

[Owfs-developers] Comment about the P8 release

2006-08-12 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul? Did I miss a statement to the list concerning the P8 release of the
OWFS-2.4 series? We've had two individuals comment that they have had
problems making this particular release work for them, at least with the USB
device.  That's next on my list of things to do for OWFS, to test the USB
device under the P8 series member.

I can confirm that it works for me for the DS1822 device and for the DB9
based serial connector. There were no complaints from the configuration
script, and none at all from the make file.

Re: [Owfs-developers] DS1821 do you know how to setup this chip?

2006-08-07 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul I know of this chip. It was one of those temperature sensitive ones
that was designed a certain way. For example the DS1822 that I chose is
functionally the same as the B20 but there are minor differences. And the
B20 is a revised version of the original DS1820.  According to the QV data
display from the company it is supposed to work like the others. 

The key words are "supposed to work" However according to the sheet it's
more of a thermostat and thermometer then what the others do. And it seems
that it is not listed as a true one-wire device, not on the list itself of
parts that are, so I think they added the one-wire interface for their piece
of mind rather then anything else. On the whole if you want to add this part
to our collection, and indeed get the permission of the fellow who coded
that idea series, (code and examples from Leonid Ivanovitch) I will support
your efforts.  As for your ideas as to how to make the thing work, that's
going to be difficult, but not impossible.

I strongly suggest we revue the datasheet for this part, and the webpage for
it. And "invite" any number of employees from Maxim-IC to participate in
this forum just for our own piece of mind.

Re: [Owfs-developers] One-Wire Networking and other networks

2006-08-06 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Kurt, thank you! I had completely forgotten about the good people at
Hobbyboards with regards to that aspect. Their idea for using the
blue-blue-white pair of the eight leaded wire group normally used for RJ45
ended 10BASE-T stuff is exactly what I had planned on doing even before
seeing their pages. It's perfect for Beethoven, or if you prefer Grieg. I
had seen your original message on my GMail account and a Beethoven piece was
playing at the time.

Re: [Owfs-developers] One-Wire Networking and other networks

2006-08-06 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Just the ticket Paul. The site there contains both a link to the original
document, plus one they've worked out on their own.

For my part I should have the first node up by the end of this week. As to
which temp sensor to use, either a DS1822 or a DS18B20, and both of them in
parasitic mode happen to be the deciding factors. I suspect I'll choose
both. A pair of DS1822s at the first node, and a DS18B20 pair at the second.

Next question, for these sensors the default viewers from the company allow
us to choose our displayed temperature, either in Degrees C, or Degrees F.
OWHTTPD and probably OWFS seem to display it in Degrees C. Is there a way to
change it to Degrees F? (Oh and the caps are mine.)

Hello!
First of all, Matt, thank you for bringing that gentleman's website to my
attention. Not only is he also a One-Wire technology enthusiast but his
website is easy to read and provides considerably more details then the
Leviton manuals and website that I normally use for wiring my connections.
(Outside of buying my patch cables pre-wired!)

Also Paul I thank you for your advice regarding the One-Wire server program
except that this end will be the only managed end. That is the computer
running Linux (who7) will be the one who'll be using the One-Wire FS
software to accomplish the goals of this experiment. The other end will be
probably end up being a networked printer connection with a big printer
parked there, with a LinkSys printer server for it. (I haven't as yet chosen
the model for it, and the printer won't be arriving until early September.)

Now a comment for the group, has a default standard for wiring our One-Wire
devices been established? I seem to recall that it was discussed and
practically beaten out of existence on the original mailing list, and the
revived ones hosted on Bouy.com seem to be rather quiet,

Re: [Owfs-developers] Successful build of OWFS at 2.4p1

2006-06-12 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul I can fully and completely announce that my One-Wire project
worked. I can access the network from both the command line via an
appropriate directory, the device family number and serial number. Or
even via the web-server one and this time I did see all four switches,
before not even the first two were present.

So we can list this as a success. It can be added to the appropriate
portion of the website. I would suggest posting a description (write
me off list if you need more information) to some portion of the
acknowledgements portion, and describe where it can be found.
Especially since this also concerns my chosen distribution.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Successful build of OWFS at 2.4p1

2006-06-10 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Right now I do not see why not. I do see one typo in my statement down
there, it should be "controlling" not the same word with one "l"
instead of two. However the HTTP service does not see the two switches
only the adapter. The regular file utility, owfs itself does. And I
was able to control the first two switches using the command line. A
bit tedious but it worked.

I am still working on some refinements. The next one will be the
second and final pair of switches. I also need to adjust the timing on

What I would prefer would be placing a link to my website, with
instructions what to look for. By this time tonight a web page should
be up with the entire details, and final corrections to the switch one

RE: SV: [Owfs-developers] Problem in building the latest CVS dropof OWFS on Slackware

2006-05-26 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I see. The few times I've used that release number something ended up
going for what we call around here an engineering casualty. Very
messy, and time consuming. Also a bloody nuisance and an
inconvenience. So I've essentially decided to stick to the one I have
10.1, and add stuff from either current, or yes 10.2, but in source
form. 

Their steps to build from source are simple. Create a directory which
matches their layout, and populate it, then run their script. And
everything gets built.

Now as to your idea, I'll upgrade my release of the python stuff to
match what would be traveling with 10.2, and include a release of Swig
at 1.3.29, that is if I'm not already at it.

RE: [Owfs-developers] Problem in building the latest CVS drop ofOWFS on Slackware

2006-05-24 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I just checked, and I have installed the language itself at version
2.4, and a -tools kit also at the same version. There isn't a -devel
kit because Slackware does not do things that way. Everything needed
to build stuff with this distribution is stuffed into specific tar
files and then compressed. If need be I'll grab the sources from
-current for both and build them and install them, after the usual
steps for an upgrade from one version to the other. 

If need be, since I don't use Python for the OWFS stuff, I'll just
disable it.

[Owfs-developers] e-mail list and delivery times

2006-05-16 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Is it my imagination or is something other then the fun and games that
SourceForge is going through that’s effecting the delivery of the
messages on our list?

I do realize that our list does have attached to it a number of
Officers, such as an Owner, and a Manager, so the deliveries of
messages may be managed by one or both individuals. But within the
past few days, in fact since Monday last week, I've seen things show
up at this address within in minutes of its posting from someone, and
hours to even days later at another address I've got subscribed.
That's the GMail one incidentally Paul.

Hello!
Blame HTML messaging. It always eats up more message storage space on
the list servers. And of course there is a GNU reasoning against HTML
messaging which is why on those lists I never use that format.

I guess it's a hobby and flollows different economic rules.

2006-05-05 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Martin, I'm reasonably familiar with the FTDI based solutions. Check
your logs. It seems the device is being attached to USB1, not USB0. 

As for why this isn't working, it just might be a bug in the libraries
associated with the device. Fuse and OWFS may just be contributing to
the issues.

We've already proven that OWFS will run on a multiple of

RE: [Owfs-developers] owfs php modual

2006-04-21 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul, this may sound surprising, but what about adding another
distribution to your parade? It seems that FC5 is very stable. It's
only problem for me is that the installer makes too many presumptions
for the user. Or even my favorite, Slackware.

That's because I can't get it to find the right build packages on
SUSE.

(Something about coreutils).

I finally got everything building in Ubuntu (see the wiki for needed
packages and work-araounds), but building rpms on that platform turns
out to have problems. 

Any suggestions?

configure:19990: WARNING: OWPHP is disabled because php-config is not

The php-config script is (as far as I know) a result of compiling php
from
scratch, but it is not included i the rpm-package. So I think you have
to
uninstall php (rpm -e php) and then download and compile the
sourcecode
from scratch.

Hello!
The folks at the host end, (SourceForge), have pretty much sorted out

What we as a group need to do here is to make sure our tool chain is

RE: [Owfs-developers] owfs and nslu

2006-03-27 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul the answer to your question is "Yes!". The single problem is
size. The drives need to be anything over 512 megabytes to effectively
be used. Most people select those from the 1 gigabyte range. I myself
am looking at a project that will be using the NSLU2 and doing just
that. Except its drive would be a CF card. 

Once you've selected the drive, everything else should work itself
out. There are two lists for managing the thing, one is for Linux
there as opposed to the other who does the general stuff. Depending on
what your doing to effectively help our correspondent I suggest you
join the Linux list.

Just got my NSLU today, as well. Cute little box.

Can we use a USB thumb drive as the "external USB disk"?

If so, that would make the choice immaterial, since I'd want to use

I suppose you lose the extra USB port, however.

The current nslu2-development package seem to be broken right now, so

Hello!
Paul you may be right. I remember seeing on the pages of Linux Journal
a discussion regarding the appropriateness of including the FUSE code
as part of the kernel at all. 

Vittore, nice to see you here. If you recall I suggested that you
should join the fun on this list. Next question, can you browse the
headers that were imported by the kernel source code? The ones for the
FUSE kit should be there. If not you may need to add them from the
base kit available from the FUSE site on Source Forge. Paul a
suggestion, what's the latest version of FUSE outside of CVS that will
work here?

RE: [Owfs-developers] CVS is scuttled, it might need to be recreated

2006-03-20 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
I confess I have not used Subversion (or svn or SVN) myself at all. I
typically use the CVS client that my distribution comes with. It's
only fairly recently that it added the Subversion client to its
development collection. I believe it was added because there are those
individuals who want to work with the bleeding edge of the Linux
Kernel. More that, then the regular projects that live on SF. That's
my opinion BTW.

I do know that both are easier to use then Arch. A project that I am
loosely associated with was originally using CVS, then went to Arch,
and finally gave it up, and then ended up with SVN. That because they
found it impossible to create the necessary patch files that are part
of the entire method of using a RCS system.

As far as the statistics methods go, we'd need to go over what sparse
documentation SF has created on the whole business.

Let me put it to you this way Paul, if you yourself decide to go to
this method of keeping score regarding which is what regarding the
code, then I will support it.

[Owfs-developers] CVS is scuttled, it might need to be recreated

2006-03-20 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Paul I do not know if you've been keeping up with the news from Source
Forge but their CVS services is not only down but crunched. It seems
this came up earlier this month. Most of the projects were recreated
but those who cover S-Z are still down.

I think it happened when they started trying to migrate the projects
to Subversion..

I'm not sure if this covers ours since it starts with an O we'll might
need to recreate it.

Also wonder of wonders they are also offering Subversion services as
well. I know the later releases of Slackware provides both a CVS and a
Subversion client, its not present in the release I am running but
nothing stops me from adding it.

[Owfs-developers] OWFS 1W and I2C

2006-03-13 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello from Gregg C Levine
Paul please feel free to forward this to the maintainer of the 2.6
series I2C code.

Let's see if I understand things correctly. We would connect the
appropriate I2C hardware from the company to the points on the
motherboard that supply the SMBUS connections. And then from there the
OWFS software would manage the 1W hardware directly, via the 1W I2C
driver code. 
Do I correctly understand things that way? Please feel free to
comment.

Hello!
Makes sense. However Paul the Borland product that behaves in much the
same way as Delphi does for the Windows environment does, was called
Kylix. However it seems that product has become depreciated and indeed
Delphi has taken over that area. However, I'm not too sure which way I
can take my problems. 

However before I definitely not go down the path your suggestion
follows, I'm going to grab a trial for the latest release of the
product for Linux, and see if it wants to install on my platform.

[Owfs-developers] Resent with new things-Suggestions for current One-Wire FS project

2006-03-03 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
Well part of that below has been completed. I am now preparing to
unpack that trial. I suspect however that I won't be able to construct
an appropriate program in Delphi to manage a group of switches. Now
the more relevant question for the group: Does anyone more familiar
with writing Bash shell scripts have any suggestions for coding a
simple script that would send a command to a mounted 1wire file
system? As you can imagine the devices would be those switches.

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Now that I've got the issues of building the currently available
releases of the OWFS code settled I now have a new problem.

Basically I need to turn on and off a DS2406 several times a second.
The output it produces would be streamed to a collection of digital
logic that itself is connected to a serially connected apparatus.
Probably many DS2406s would be involved in this, from four to as many
as eight. While the DS2408 would be an excellent choice for this, I do
not want to travel down that path as yet.

I had originally thought of adapting one of the examples that Maxim-IC
itself had written, for Windows of course. That being their Delphi
DS2406 example. But since the emulator for the serially connected
apparatus also runs on Linux, and probably better at that I had
shelved it. (Despite the decision to go ahead and grab a trial from
Borland.) Do any of you have an idea how this could be written out
using a shell script? It would have to be simple and neatly written.
And very definitely not the kind of scripting that ends up being
written in Perl. (There are personal reasons for this objection. If
anyone needs to have this point clarified please contact me off list.)


If need be I'll even accept a script written out using the TCL
language.

RE: [Owfs-developers] Device Support

2006-02-27 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello!
How do you mean? "Are they're any plans to support the i2c<->1 wire
bus master DS2482-800, obviously this would require some support at
kernel level?"

The current levels of the Linux kernel support the basic and
complicated I2C communications methods. I should think that Maxim is
fully aware of this, and has worked out the details for getting the
part to work. As for us? I suspect it is on the TODO list for Paul,
but I am only surmising here.

RE: [Owfs-developers] connecting many DS2408

2006-02-14 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello from Gregg C Levine
For my part, I'd rather give my money to Maxim-IC for their DS9090K,
because I've got something of a good history with them. Also I
reviewed the contents of the kit via the Maxim-IC website, and as it
happens yes you are right Paul regarding the prototyping area. And I
might add that they provide a set of sockets for their (to me
annoying) TSOC parts on the board.

I've looked at the contents of the Hobby Boards site, and I confess
I'm not impressed. Most of what they sell seems to be aimed towards
the hobbyist who does not want to build his own One-Wire hardware.
Well, with regards to their LCD display stuff that I would buy. It is
one device that I'm not comfortable with trying to build.

I should also add that if we are going to assist the correspondent in
working out the particulars for the many DS2408 project we should also
track down a company who will mount the DS2408 parts to boards on a
relatively cheap basis. Other then Hobby Boards that is. (To assist
with code creation of course.)

RE: [Owfs-developers] Timeout again

2006-02-13 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello from Gregg C Levine
This is definitely an interesting case we've got here. And an
interesting test case for both OWFS, and even FUSE, and certainly the
One-Wire technology.

Several questions remain for you Christian:
Question One
Were these tests managed using the contents of CVS? Or did you use
a new release?

Question Two
 Was this managed using the currently released version of FUSE or
was it done using CVS for FUSE?
 
Question Three
 And which distribution did you use? I know Paul uses Suse, but
are you using Debian? Or even my distribution of choice Slackware?

The obvious but not asked here ones will come up later.

RE: [Owfs-developers] FW: Your latest OWFS - Software

2006-02-12 Thread Gregg C Levine
Hello from Gregg C Levine
This raises some interesting issues here. I develop using Slackware,
all of the 10 series releases are found here. My only problem is that
a custom kernel is a requirement for FUSE. I'm going to be trying the
latest and greatest OWFS software this week. 

Given what our correspondent chose to test his OWFS setup with that
will be my test vehicle. I'll know more by Friday at the latest.

how long it takes messages to reach the rest of us. Would all of you
except my other self please let me know off list when this message got
