SPECIAL PROPERTIES

   date
       read-write, ascii
       26 character date representation of the counter value. Increments once  per  second  while
       running
       Setting date to a null string will put the current system time.
       Accepted date formats are:
         Sat[urday] March 12 12:23:59 2001
         Apr[il] 4 9:34:56 2002
         3/23/04 23:34:57
         current locale setting (your system's format)

   enable
       read-write, yes-no
       State of the timer interrupt. 0=off 1=running.

   interval
       read-write, unsigned integer
       Interval   between  timer  interrupts.  Values:  0-7.  See  table  under  DESCRIPTION  for
       interpretation.  itime will reflect the interval chosen.

   itime
       read-write, unsigned integer
       Interval between timer interrupts. Value in  seconds.  See  table  under  DESCRIPTION  for
       interpretation and acceptable values.  interval will reflect the itime chosen.

   flags
       read-write, unsigned integer
       General use data. 4 bits (0-15 accepted values).

   running
       read-write, yes-no
       State of the clock. 0=off 1=running.

   udate
       read-write, unsigned integer
       Time represented as a number.  udate increments once per second, while running is on.
       Usually  set  to  unix  time standard: number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970. The date field
       will be the unix representation of udate and setting either will change the other.

STANDARD PROPERTIES

   address
   r_address
       read-only, ascii
       The entire 64-bit unique ID. Given as upper case hexidecimal digits (0-9A-F).
       address starts with the family code
       r address is the address in reverse order, which is often used in other  applications  and
       labeling.

   crc8
       read-only, ascii
       The  8-bit  error  correction  portion.  Uses  cyclic  redundancy check. Computed from the
       preceding 56 bits of the unique ID number. Given as upper case hexidecimal  digits  (0-9A-
       F).

   family
       read-only, ascii
       The  8-bit  family  code.  Unique  to each type of device. Given as upper case hexidecimal
       digits (0-9A-F).

   id
   r_id
       read-only, ascii
       The 48-bit middle portion of the unique ID number. Does not include  the  family  code  or
       CRC. Given as upper case hexidecimal digits (0-9A-F).
       r id is the id in reverse order, which is often used in other applications and labeling.

   locator
   r_locator
       read-only, ascii
       Uses  an  extension  of  the 1-wire design from iButtonLink company that associated 1-wire
       physical connections with a unique 1-wire code. If the connection is behind a Link Locator
       the  locator  will  show  a  unique 8-byte number (16 character hexidecimal) starting with
       family code FE.
       If no Link Locator is between the device and the master, the locator field will be all FF.
       r locator is the locator in reverse order.

   present (DEPRECATED)
       read-only, yes-no
       Is the device currently present on the 1-wire bus?

   type
       read-only, ascii
       Part name assigned by Dallas Semi. E.g.  DS2401 Alternative packaging  (iButton  vs  chip)
       will not be distiguished.

ALARMS

       None implemented.

DESCRIPTION

   1-Wire
       1-wire  is  a  wiring  protocol  and series of devices designed and manufactured by Dallas
       Semiconductor, Inc. The bus is a low-power low-speed low-connector scheme where  the  data
       line can also provide power.

       Each  device  is  uniquely  and  unalterably numbered during manufacture. There are a wide
       variety of devices, including memory, sensors (humidity,  temperature,  voltage,  contact,
       current),  switches,  timers  and  data  loggers.  More complex devices (like thermocouple
       sensors) can be built with these basic devices. There are also 1-wire  devices  that  have
       encryption included.

       The  1-wire  scheme uses a single bus master and multiple slaves on the same wire. The bus
       master initiates  all  communication.  The  slaves  can  be  individually  discovered  and
       addressed using their unique ID.

       Bus  masters  come in a variety of configurations including serial, parallel, i2c, network
       or USB adapters.

   OWFS design
       OWFS is a suite of programs that designed to make the 1-wire bus and  its  devices  easily
       accessible. The underlying principle is to create a virtual filesystem, with the unique ID
       being the directory, and the individual properties of the device are represented as simple
       files that can be read and written.

       Details of the individual slave or master design are hidden behind a consistent interface.
       The goal is to provide an easy set of tools for a software designer to  create  monitoring
       or  control  applications.  There are some performance enhancements in the implementation,
       including data caching,  parallel  access  to  bus  masters,  and  aggregation  of  device
       communication.  Still  the  fundemental  goal  has  been  ease  of  use,  flexibility  and
       correctness rather than speed.

   DS2415 DS1904
       The DS2415 (3) and DS1904 (3) are simple clocks that can be read on the 1-wire  bus.  They
       can also be used the time an event, for remote confirmation.

   DS2417
       The  DS2417  has  the  same  clock  function,  but  also  includes a programmable interval
       interrupt. Values Allowed are:
       0 1sec
       1 4sec
       2 32s = .5m
       3 6 = 1m
       4 2048s = .5h
       5 4096s = 1h
       6 65536s = 18h
       7 131072s = 36h

ADDRESSING

       All 1-wire devices are factory assigned a unique 64-bit address. This address  is  of  the
       form:

       Family Code
              8 bits

       Address
              48 bits

       CRC    8 bits

       Addressing under OWFS is in hexidecimal, of form:

              01.123456789ABC

       where 01 is an example 8-bit family code, and 12345678ABC is an example 48 bit address.

       The dot is optional, and the CRC code can included. If included, it must be correct.
