Yes. And to configure the owfs.conf of the owserver host to include
external sensors.

How do I tell apart professionals from pseudo-professionals without
trying out first what they can do? By checking if they own a whip to
teach their employees to work flawlessly? I think the big problem is,
prototyping is tedious work done by hand, and there are many companies
in the market who outsource this. And only this. So even if you check
their equipment, it's likely they don't use it to do your prototypes.

It has already been ordered from Mouser. Will arrive next week. Have to
see when I can start.

By the way: Pascal Baerten has told me he updated his brain4home.eu
page. Have you asked him for a sample of his chip? I say that because in
contrary to the DS28E17, the BAE0911 has more intelligence built-in, so
it can interface to a connected I²C chip right now from a user program
put into it, and return the result through one of its general purpose
data properties in OWFS. And it's working right now.


Kind regards
