Matthieu,

I'm sure you know that the DS1821 is quite different from the other 1-wire 
devices:

1. it has no address and cannot live on the same bus with any other devices
2. it has two modes, temperature and thermostat. Thermostat mode cannot be 
exited by 1-wire commands alone (it requires dropping the Vdd line), so would 
need hardware support or a separate 1-wire bus and a switch like the 
DS2405,6,7,8,9,13...

To support it, we'd probably use a command line switch (--DS1821) that would 
turn off all the bus search, directory functions, etc...

/DS1821
  /type (ro)
  /templow (rw)
  /temphigh (rw)
  /temperature (ro)
  /alarm/temphigh (rw)
  /alarm/templow (rw)
  /polarity (rw)
  /thermostat (rw)
  /1shot (rw)
  /continuous (wo)

How would you plan using the DS1821? As a thermometer, or as a programmable 
thermostat?

Paul
