every sensor must be calibrated https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration in other words, get a sensor as "default", and make every others sensors have same value for the same temperature (normally a 0 Celsius ice bath) some ds18x20 have calibration inside rom, other must be done via external prog

I have several DS18x20 sensors in my network, some DS18S20 (the first 12) and some DS18B20 (some more added later). Since i was unsure about some reading of some DS18S20 sensors i used a second DS18B20 on the same spot... That reading was about 2°C higher than the DS18S20... i moved it about and i

OWFS opens the i2c bus as a character device (like serial) and does all communication over that. Each line is then handled independently. So I agree with Jan, the electrical properties of the switch would be the first place to look. As for how to test, try a single DS2483, first directly connecte

2013-07-22 Thread Robert Budde
Hi all, I am experiencing some difficulties when using a PCA9546 i2c-switch in conjunction with five DS2483 onewire-masters on a Beaglebone Black. Owfs-Version is 2.9p1 (latest) and Kernel is 3.8.13 (Debian-distro). The first DS2483 is directly connected to the "native" I2C line (/dev/i2c-1
