Re: 1-Wire network wiring



Hi Chris

Im not sure if you can still purchase them but maybe Justins TOM10 Board
which allows you to connect up to 10 dallas 1 wire sensors.......

I use my own hardware to monitor dallas ds18s20 sensors using a cat5 based
system.....It currently allows you to connect 2 dallas ds18s20 sensors
toprobe 5 + 6 of  each zone box but my test probe system is now setup to
allow dallas sensors in any probe input or all..which means up to 64 dallas
sensors......

Heres a link to my Probe system......
