[Owfs-developers] OWFS on tmpfs

2013-01-06 Thread Martin Patzak (GMX)
Hallo all,

I am trying to run OWFS on tmpfs, but I do not succeed.
I created a mount entry in fstab:

tmpfs /mnt/1wire tmpfs nodev,nosuid,size=3M,uid=1004,gid=1005 0 0

the uid and gid are the ones of my own user


then I mount and can check the success with df -k which list /mnt/1wire 
as a tmpfs file system. As well as listing ls -al /mnt/ results i a 
small t for tmpfs at the entry 1wire

when I start now OWFS it does not use the tmpfs created, but seems to 
unmount and remount.

Is there a way to have OWFS use tmpfs and how?

I need it, because I am running of raspi with only a sd-card attached.

Thanks,

Martin

owfs uses FUSE, so it is its own filesystem. It doesn't actually write anything 
to your SD card.

Re: [Owfs-developers] 1-wire LCD controller

2013-01-06 Thread Paul Alfille
That lcd controller has been supported for quite a while. There is a DS2408
based one from HobbyBoards that also has buttons.

 I'm looking for a solution to use a control panel for my application. I
 need an LCD, and some push buttons.
 I found this (http://www.louisswart.co.za/1-Wire_Overview.html), and as I
 see, OWFS supports this device.

 Does anyone has any experience with this LCD controller? How can I use the
 LCD from OWFS, and how can I handle the buttons?
 As I see, button state switches are cached by the controller PIC itself,
 and it says: All inputs are sampled at 25mS intervals, any detected
 change will increment the input's event counter (counts up and down going
 events).

 Any experience how can I read these status changes out, how does this
 event counter work in practice?

 Thank you,

 Attila

Re: [Owfs-developers] owhttpd problems with LINK on pc-engines WRAP board

2013-01-06 Thread Paul Alfille
I'll test again, but is seems that the serial port is a little
non-standard. I'm  sure i's just a TIO settings issue and can be fixed.

By the way, without setting the owhttpd port, it may be difficult to
actually find the working web server's port.

 it hangs (see below). But if I then run minicom I can get to the LINK just
 fine
 (e.g. I can type h to get the help). If I then ctrl-a Q out of minicom
 (exit

 I run
 minicom again and exit normally having it reset the modem then owhttpd
 fails
 again. This is 100% reproducible. Any ideas as to what could be up here?

If you have any suggestion, let me know and I'll try it out. I'm a bit stumped. 
it's not a DTR/RTS power issue, that much I can tell...

Understood. I was simply using the shortest comand line that shows the issue.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Measuring DC Voltage

2013-01-06 Thread Peter Hollenbeck
I want to measure the voltage of a 12 volt battery system: two 6 volt golf
cart batteries charged by micro hydro and solar. Remote, unattended. I have
an a2d card with serial interface that used to give me the voltage but it
stopped working. I would like to replace it with a 1wire solution.
I have looked at the DS2438 but as it is a chip I guess I need a breadboard
and at least 1wire and DC connectors, plus the voltage divider.

I was hoping to find a kit or pre-built solution but maybe I could do it
from parts.

Thanks for your reply.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Measuring DC Voltage

2013-01-06 Thread Nathan Hurst
Something to be careful when measuring batteries is the posibility of
ground faults.  You should put some kind of isolator in the circuit.
I would look at something like:
http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Fairchild-Semiconductor/KA331/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMsX%252bY3VKDPZyJCaoDxJE74rPXbbWqbQ96g%3d
driving a http://www.us.liteon.com/downloads/LTV-817-827-847.PDF or
maybe even an audio transformer over a twisted pair.  Then you can use
a counter 1-wire or arduino to record the voltage.  Looking at the
data sheet I think you could easily build this yourself if you have a
soldering iron and some veroboard (It's all through hole stuff and
cheap even in singles).  You might also look at wireless, there are a
number of cheap wireless boards out there on 37MHz and 2.4GHz.
