Hello!
We've gone all over this many times before. I know, I started a thread
and watched it evolve past its prime, but it seems to have surfaced
yet again.

On the RJ11 PDF that Maxim-IC/Dallas has prepared, (and is available
there someplace) it describes which two wires are chosen as the
One-Wire data lead and the return lead. On the connector end of the
cable, it turns out that the team back there is correct.

However unless you've made the cables yourself be careful. There is a
problem called "rolling", and it normally happens with RJ45 attached
cables, made up for the phone networks, it happens that the lead for
One at one end gets swapped with Eight.

In my case it was a twist in the cable attached to the connector, red
for green in this case.

I have two specially made up for this work, but I decided to create a
third just for the purposes of making up breadboard based
applications, and that's where it happened. I need to remind myself
that at the board end the leads are reversed.

This work is in the same area as the items you've got under projects
under my name on the www.owfs.org site.
