DS1821(3)		     One-Wire File System		     DS1821(3)

NAME
       DS1821 -	Programmable Digital Thermostat	and Thermometer

SYNOPSIS
       Thermostat.

       thermostat  [/[	temperature | temphigh | templow | temphighflag	| tem-
       plowflag	| thermostatmode | polarity | 1shot ]]

FAMILY CODE
       none

SPECIAL	PROPERTIES
   temperature
       read-only, floating point
       9-bit resolution	temperature. Units are selected	from the invoking com-
       mand line. See owfs(1) or owhttpd(1) for	choices. Default  is  Celsius.
       Conversion takes	1 second.

   temphigh templow
       read-write. floating point
       Temperature  limits  for	 alarms.  Units	are selected from the invoking
       command line. See owfs(1) or owhttpd(1) for choices.  Default  is  Cel-
       sius.
       Note that alarms	are not	implemented.

   temphighflag, templowflag
       read-write. yes-no
       temphighflag goes to 1 when temperature exceeds temphigh	and stays at 1
       until  it  is  reset by writing it to zero.  This state persists	across
       power cycles and	operates in both 1-wire	and  thermostat	 modes.	  tem-
       plowflag	 behaves  in the same way, monitoring the temperature with re-
       spect to	templow.

   thermostatmode
       read-write. yes-no
       When this bit is	set to 1 the chip will enter thermostat	 mode  on  the
       next power-up.  See the datasheet for further information on thermostat
       mode.   NOTE:  Once the DS1821 has entered thermostat mode it cannot be
       taken out back to 1-wire	mode using a 1-wire interface.	Special	 elec-
       trical  incantations on the power and data lines	must be	performed that
       are not possible	with a normal 1-wire bus master. A special circuit  is
       required	- see the datasheet for	complete details.

   polarity
       read-write. yes-no
       Controls	 the output sense of the thermostat output (DQ)	while in ther-
       mostat mode.  If	polarity is 0 the output is active low.	If  it	is  1,
       active high.

   1shot
       read-write. yes-no
       If  this	 bit is	1, a START CONVERT command will	begin a	conversion and
       the chip	will enter a low power state when the conversion is  complete.
       If  the	bit  is	0 then START CONVERT will begin	a conversion and start
       another one as soon as it is done.  STOP	CONVERSION must	 be  performed
       to  get the conversion cycle to stop.  This interface automatically is-
       sues a STOP CONVERSION command when going out of	continuous mode.

TEMPERATURE ALARM LIMITS
       When the	device exceeds either temphigh or templow temperature  thresh-
       old  the	device is in the alarm state, and will appear in the alarm di-
       rectory.	This provides an easy way to poll for  temperatures  that  are
       unsafe, especially if simultaneous temperature conversion is done.

       Units for the temperature alarms	are in the same	temperature scale that
       was set for temperature measurements.

       Temperature  thresholds	are  stored in non-volatile memory and persist
       until changed, even if power is lost.

   temphigh
       read-write, integer
       Shows or	sets the lower limit for the high temperature alarm state.

   templow
       read-write, integer
       Shows or	sets the upper limit for the low temperature alarm state.

DESCRIPTION
   1-Wire
       1-wire is a wiring protocol and series of devices designed and manufac-
       tured 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  (humid-
       ity, 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  en-
       cryption	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, par-
       allel, 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 in-
       dividual	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 com-
       munication.  Still the fundamental goal has been	ease of	use, flexibil-
       ity and correctness rather than speed.

   DS1821
       The DS1821 (3) is a unique 1-wire  device.  It  is  unaddressable,  and
       therefore there can be only one on a given bus.	It is meant to be pro-
       grammed	once  using 1-wire and then permanently	installed in a thermo-
       stat circuit.  Once in thermostat mode, it is  no  longer  programmable
       from a 1-wire interface.	 It is possible	to recover it into 1-wire mode
       but only	with a special circuit.

ADDRESSING
       Unlike all other	1-wire chips, the ,B DS1821 (3)	has no unique address.
       It  is  addressed  as thermostat	and will not announce itself in	device
       discovery (directory listing).
