What "auto detection" are you referring to? Serial ports need to be specified specifically. USB enumeration is inconsistent, but you can specify which adapter (in order) to use. i2c address can be specified. network addresses can be specified. w1 won't let you specify. What else is there? Are you

Mick, The problem with 1-wire is that it is has "single ended" data communications signaling vs. "differential" in rs485 or ethernet over cat5. If you have the differential on a single twisted pair, the signal will be very resistant to external noise. With single ended systems, noise is always
