Doug,
Ok I think I get what you want now and I may have misunderstood what you were after. The problem is that I receive and handle the data from the onewire bus in the plugin and if it is strange data there is an error. I have no way of polling the bus from the plugin so I would need to try and handle the errors on the board or find a way to poll the device if there is an error.
I do not have a lot of time at the moment but I will try and set up a test to see if this is possible to add.
Greig.

Hi Greig,
I'm a little confused by your reply. I think that's what I expected. The plug-in is detecting an error and so reports an unambiguously error-style of value. I think that behaviour makes sense.
What I'm wondering is if the plug-in could be enhanced to try again, if it detects an error condition like this.
For example, if it could be configured to "retry 3 times" on error, for example, then I think my system would work just fine. The errors are quite rare and are proving quite stubbornly difficult to track down and eliminate in hardware.
regards
Doug

Hello Greig.
Today is happened the same error in the my system. Is 1 error to 3-4 hours. I have 1 DS18B20 (TO92 capsule ) with 8m CAT5 cable and 1 kohm resistor.

I will need to check the code when I get home but looking at the log I think my plugin is reporting an error for your devices. If you look at the rom device that has the temp in it is the status value for error not "9999999" and what you are seeing is Jon00's plugin logging this value. I will confirm this when I have more time and also see if there is a way to stop this.

I think the proper hardware solution is to use a "real" one-wire bus master with an active pull-up, but this is so close to working I think a simple software trap would do the trick.

FWIW I have 4 DS18B20 sensors on a Cat 5 cable of about the same length, with a 2.2K pull-up and haven't seen an error. This is on a test board. For my production temperature sensors I use EDS OWServers because they are so darn reliable.

Error trapping on 1-wire temperature measurments
Hi Greig,
I've used Arduinos in the past to measure temperature on multiple one-wire sensors and I'm aware of the limitations of "bit banging" with a single output (as distinct from using a more sophisticated active pull-up).
As it is, I've got three temperature sensors on a cat 5 cable that's about 15 meters long and I've got it *almost* working perfectly. By that, I mean that I can measure temperatures every 6 minutes and only get about 1 or 2 measurements per day that show up as 9999999.
So, my question is: can these erroneous readings be trapped and handled sensibly somehow? I expect it could all be done in a script, but it seems more appropriate for it to be handled close to the sensor, such as in the plug-in. Perhaps this kind of reading could cause a warning to be written to the log, and the measurement re-tried?
Regards
Doug

Update help file for pinouts
There are different configurations for the pinouts depending on USB, ethernet Mega or UNO. It's taken me some time find what is needed selecting inputs or outputs in the board setup to get it working depending on my set up analog or digital. It would be good reference to update the help file reflecting these differences. Great plugin always works as advertised, much to learn but satisfaction is guaranteed.

The latest rev http://www.chipkit.net/started is here.
I tested this version but its sees not to connect to hs3.
The newer do not support chipkit 32-bit boards.
Is it possible to use this board?
