[Owfs-developers] Help with writing a new device driver

Folks, I'm trying to add a new 1-wire device to OWFS and thrashing around trying to make a start. I've tried looking at the code for various devices and can sort of see how it hangs together but I wondered if there was a guide anywhere (unlikely, I know) or any suggested order of reading of code or

[Owfs-developers] SS-WALL-TH

Has anyone looked at writing code for the SS-WALL-TH from iButtonlink. It's a temp/humidity sensor intended to be embedded into drywall/plasterboard and it uses IBL's smart-slave technology. I'm guessing that it wouldn't be too difficult to do but if anyone has looked at it or made a start then I d

Re: [Owfs-developers] Can the owserver be "overloaded"?

The issue *may* be that the relay board is overloading the power available from the LinkUSB and causing random resets of the DS2408. It depends on the power required to drive the relays on the Hobbyboards board. Our relay board takes 160mA with all relays energised and this will cause an overload

Re: [Owfs-developers] DS2409 vs. LinkUSB: ??

We're a supplier of the LinkUSB. Let me have a word with iButtonlink and see what they say. Remember, the LinkUSB is effectively a combination of a LINK45 and an FTDI USB/serial adapter. The LINK45 in turn emulates a DS9097U-S09. So I suspect what the OWFS code is doing is pretending that the
