OK more research and I have made a bit of progress.

adding

server: fake=10.053C8A010800,10.2AFE89010800,10.90F889010800

to owfs.conf creates these devices with random values, different at each 
read.  They can be split over different lines e.g.

server: fake=10.053C8A010800
fake=10.2AFE89010800,10.90F889010800

Also you can limit the values -

server: fake=10.053C8A010800
fake=10.2AFE89010800,10.90F889010800
--temperature_low=20.1
--temperature_high=22.1

limits the values of all 3 sensors to between 20.1 and 22.1, however

server: fake=10.053C8A010800
--temperature_low=10.1
--temperature_high=12.1
fake=10.2AFE89010800,10.90F889010800
--temperature_low=20.1
--temperature_high=22.1

limits all 3 sensors to between 20.1 and 22.1, it seems that only the 
last restrictions are used for all devices.  The limits must be on 
separate lines, so

server: fake=10.053C8A010800 --temperature_low=10.1 --temperature_high=12.1

does not restrict the temperature at all.

Using 'tester' in place of 'fake' creates the device with a consistent 
value, but there does not seem to be any way to control what that value 
is, --temperature_low=20.1, --temperature_high=22.1 has no effect.  The 
values seem to be different for each device, but all are many hundreds 
or thousands of degrees.

Is there any way to set individual temperatures for fake devices?

Thanks
Mick
