@Matthias Would you add a capacitor per sensor or for the whole bus? My bus is quite stable, but I'm always trying to make it more stable. :-) Den ons 19 juni 2019 kl 13:53 skrev Matthias Urlichs via Owfs-developers < owfs-developers@lists.sourceforge.net>: > On 19.06.19 13:03, Mick Sulley

Yes all of my sensors are powered.  I will do more investigation.  Thanks for the comments On 19/06/2019 09:19, Matthias Urlichs via Owfs-developers wrote: On 19.06.19 09:39, Jan Kandziora wrote: The 1W host has to supply current to the 1W line to power all the parasitic powered slave

2019-06-17 Thread Mick Sulley
My system comprises multiple DS18S20, DS18B20 temperature sensors, some DS2438 I/O modules and a DS2437 to measure system voltage. The voltage normally sits at around 5.1 volts, up to maybe 5.15 when no outputs are on, down to 4.95 with several outputs on. A while back I saw the voltage drop
