>Kind regards > Jan Sadly it seems that the DS2409 is no longer available, so i have to make it more like a *bus*. But by doing this (i think) i will lose the "easy" connection though the rj45 hub ports: every port needs to be connected, otherwhise the signal ends. Is there any known number of DS18.20 (or length of cat5e cable) that will work without any problems in a tree like network? That would limit the resoldering i need to do. I have "a feeling" that the counter modules generate the most problems, is this true? thanks in advance Jan PS does anyone know where to get the DS2409 (for a reasonable price) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
