1-Wire

1-Wire is a very low-cost bus system, which was mainly developed and used for the acquisition of temperature values.

Example: Pre-assembled 1-Wire sensor. Flexible use, from the hollow wall socket (behind the switch) to the outdoor area.

Wiring

Verdrahtung 1-Wire

Optionally, 1-Wire can also be used in “parasitic mode”, i.e. in 2-wire operation. Then the sensor uses the data line as power supply. In this case, however, a maximum of 20 sensors can be used for a total of 50 metres.

When connecting the sensors, it is essential to pay attention to the colour coding on the label. This can deviate from the picture.
