[Owfs-developers] Crazy temperature readings

2013-11-05 Thread Jeff Siddall
Somewhat related to the "diagnosing disappearing devices" thread, I have also noted that sometimes my temperature readings go crazy. Example from a temperature log: 2013-11-05 04:31:10 ,Basement Fridge Thermometer, 7.125 2013-11-05 04:32:10 ,Basement Fridge Thermometer, 7.0625 2013-1

I just ordered a couple, wondering if anyone has experience with them. I previously tried the MAX31826 and that was flaky but that could have been an electrical problem and nothing to do with owfs. Thanks, Jeff -- Octo

I realize this is more of a hardware rather than owfs question but it is directly related to owfs functionality so here goes: I have a bunch of existing 4-wire untwisted telephone station cable I want to use for 1-wire. It is all home run (star) wired currently which is not ideal for a 1-wire

I bought one of these to test since they are the cheapest 1-wire temperature sensor available. Unfortunately nothing shows up in owfs when it is connected to the bus so I guess they are not supported in owfs-fs-2.7p28-1 I am running. Any plans to add support for this? http://www.maxim-ic.com/
