Ultra1Wire3 reports 32 Degs when it can't find a sensor

I believe I have the issue resolved. The fix is in Ultra1Wire3 HSPI version 3.0.7300.25648 which I just posted for update.

So far so good for me. thanks Jones

I powered down my OWservers today to replace a couple of Z-Wave switches. When I powered them up the OneWire temperature sensors all went to 32 degrees until the servers made their first pass at sampling.

I don't know if the OWServers are sending that as a valid measurement or not.

I've installed it and will let you know. Mine has been rock solid for a couple of years. I will usually see this if I disconnect power from one of the OWServers. If I have time, I will test this weekend.

Any progress to report on this?

It appears to be the temperature conversion routine that's setting the value to 32 degrees. I need to figure out how to detect a non-response before sending the temperature to be converted. I am digging into this now.

UltraJones,
any comments on this old thread about sensors reporting 32 degrees

[mnsandler]

I use the EDS OWServers for mine and they will all revert to 32 degrees if the sensors are offline. If I interrupt the power to the servers I get several alerts immediately that freezers are at 32 degrees (I monitor 3). I think the setting you are referring to only has to do with inserting values into the database for graphing, not how the devices report to HomeSeer.



I would prefer the devices in HomeSeer stayed at their last value for a minute or so and then go to some state that is clearly an error instead of reverting to 32 degrees. That way, we would know if a device or server is offline, but only after missing several updates.

Randy,
I think we need a little feedback from UltraJones here. The setting you and i are referring to should do what we both want. I understand about 'inserting values into the database" but that shouldn't make a difference. The value read is the value read/reported regardless of what the plugin does with it. If the OW Server is the device actually reading the values from the sensors, then the plugin may not know when a sensor is online or not. I don't believe this is the case with the HA7E (it doesn't do anything proactively)

the plugin has an option "On No Report" to use last value if none is reported however I'm finding the plugin settings sensors to 32 when they don't report

is this is feature or bug of 3.0.6629.22233?

im using an HA7E as my adapter
