I think I'm the one who hijacked this thread!
Pete, about 2 months ago, my HS3 1-wire network stopped working. I tracked it down to to xapmcs1wire.exe. This communication program is needed to talk to the HS3 xAP plugin. For some unknown reason it now refuses to run under Windows 10. I believe that a recent win 10 update is blocking it because it is a security risk. So I am now (for about a month) running my xAP 1-wire stuff on an old windows XP Netbook and using JSON to send the values back to my main HS3 computer. This is a temporary solution. This is why I am interested in other approaches.
Bdraper, the Arduino approach you are using looks very nice. I will definitely explore this more as time permits.
For me, 1-wire/xAP technology has been very disappointing. I invested a large amount of effort with it for HS2. Now, with HS3, it is falling apart. It looks like I will now have to redo something that worked well for me in the past. 2 steps forward, 1 step back .
