I have a digi which displays both internal and external temperature (in this case, the internal temperature of the cabinet holding the digi and the repeater), it also reports the charge voltage. KAMSKI is the tactical call. For the T2-135, its .... "You can use this to get temperature readings from the T2-135 or T2-301 where there's no internal sensor. To build a temperature probe, just wire the middle pin of the DS18S20 to the 1-wire bus connection (pin 8 on the T2-135, pin 7 on the T2-301) and the left pin (with the flat, marked face toward you and the pins down) to ground. You can clip off the right pin." For the T2-301 Digi(VE3BDR-5), the command is TEMP, not EXTTEMP. Works for me. --- In [email protected], "ve7mlx" <ve7...@...> wrote: > > Am I right in assuming that if you want to add an external temp sensor to a > OT2M and not a T2-135 you could wire into the 6 pin modular jack?
