Hi,

I have expanded my network to about 20 DS18?20's and all was fine.  I am
now trying to add some I/O using Embedded Data Systems D2P modules which
use DS2406.  I need to switch mains voltage so built circuits to switch
relays with the D2P units.

The network is basically Cat 5 cable with some spurs off in 4 core phone
cable.  I had some concerns over power requirements a while back and
decided to use 2 separate 5v power supplies, one for the sensor circuit
and one for the relay circuits.

I added one of the D2P units and it seemed OK, I then added a couple
more and the network crashes.  Using owfs and looking at the directory
structure I see various things, maybe no devices at all then refresh and
see a couple of the temperature devices, refresh again and see nothing,
etc.

The D2P unit that caused the crash was at the far end of the network, I
unplugged it and plugged it in half way down and it worked.  I put it
back at the end and unplugged the relay +5v supply and it works (but
obviously the relays don't work).  Not sure if this diagram will get
through, the circuit I have used is -




I am really stuck here, I don't know what to do next.  Can anyone help
please?
Thanks
Mick
