I am trying out a simple 1-wire system (a single thermometer module) on 2.15a. I have declared the 1-wire controller on the PH Setup but I do not see it on the list of devices nor does any polling appear on the PH log. I am using a 1-wire USB prototyping interface that has an activity light that flashes when polled using OneWireViewer.exe to view the temperature but there is no activity from PH. Is that functionality running in 2.15a? Dave: is this is a low priority 'play around' item for me so don't spend a lot a time on my account on this. Thanks. Terry

Terry,
1-wire should be fully functional in PH 2.1.5a (Im using it in my own system). It sounds as if you've declared the 1-wire controller successfully (verify by looking at the Controllers tab in Help->About) so you're good there. All you'll need to do at this point is declare the 1-wire devices connected to your controller in the Analog I/O table. An example of how to setup these devices is given in the screenshots below (this is of my setup):
A little explanation will help. ID and Description are obvious. I/O should be the 1-wire type of the device and the Controller should be the ID of your 1-wire controller. ROM ID/Address is the 1-wire device address. The Point should be set to 0 normally but can have other values if multiple devices are associated with the same 1-wire address (as can be seen in the screenshots). The Poll Interval is not a poll interval (the 1-wire controller continuously polls the devices) and is instead the amount the 1-wire device needs to change before PowerHome updates the device status and fires a trigger (1-wire happens so fast and can change so rapidly that this is needed to keep the eventlog and triggers from firing continuously. The thing to keep in mind is the the 1-wire value is stored internally as an integer (no decimal points). In the case of temperature, the resolution is to tenths of a degree so a Poll Interval for a temperature device means that PowerHome is only updated when the temperature changes by half a degree (73.5 would be stored as 735).
Anyways, that should get you started. Let me know how it goes.
Dave.

Dave,
Thanks for the reply. The About -> Help -> Controllers reports the 1-Wire controller is connected and the sensor with the appropriate ID is sensed on port 6. I am using the very cool www.denkovi.com prototyping board that has a flashing light when the board is polled as with OneWireViewer and I am getting no pooling activity. Should I be seeing any record on the PH activity log or the raw log relating to the 1-wire controller as I am seeing nothing? Also, should the PH Device List show any information from a 1-wire device like it does for a Insteon device like a thermostat? It is blank which I suppose is sensible since it is not reading the sensor. OneWireViewer reads the sensor on port 6 with no problem. Thanks again. Just to remind, this is a low priority-just playing around item for me.
Terry

Terry,
You just need to add the sensor to the Analog I/O screen. Then PowerHome will start polling it and display it on the Device Status screen.
Dave.

Dave,
The sensor was setup on the analog screen from the beginning. I tried to post some screen shots but got a system error about unable to find a path. There was a part of someone elses path concatenated to mine.
Thanks,
Terry

What should I see in Debug Info with a properly functioning 1-Wire Controller? About/Controllers says 1-Wire Controller is connected, Single 1-Wire Sensor is setup in Analog Devices and 1-Wire ID is reflected in About/Controllers description of the 1-Wire Controller and 1-Wire sensor appears in device table along with the 80 or so Insteon devices and finally, when PH is initialized, the 1-Wire interface is polled (twice) but never polled again. This is what Debug Info says, what should it say (1-Wire at the bottom)?

Terry,
Not sure what is going on. According to the debug info, none of your controllers are currently connected. Probably the best way to solve this would be to schedule a remote session. Email me a phone number I can call and a date/time that will work for you and I'll try to set it up.
Thanks,
Dave.

Is there a list of supported controllers for 1-wire? I'm
looking at the Maxim integrated (USB) DS9490R#.
Thanks

Lenny,
I have been using material from Hobby Boards www.hobbyboards.com which has a lot of documentation and starter kits. Be advised I have discovered there are families of 1-Wire sensors with technical differences and the DS18B20 Temperature Sensors that Hobby Boards sells will not be supported by PH for a couple of weeks per Dave. He suggests DS18S20 which you probably can get from www.mouser.com which will work now. For prototyping, look into a Denkovi USB to One Wire interface module that you can get on eBay.

Thanks for that info. I have ordered a lot of components
from mouser. I'll check out hobbyboards.
