     EF     Moisture Meter

     EF     Hub

TEMPERATURE PROPERTIES
   temperature
     read-only, floating point
     Temperature  read	every  30  seconds.  Resolution  .5C  (uses  an on-board
     DS18B20). Temperature is only present in the EE-series devices.

   temperature_offset
     read-write, floating point
     Offset stored on device to apply to temperature readings.

UVI PROPERTIES
   UVI/UVI
     read-only floating point
     UV Index (ultraviolet index) in the range 0.0 to 16.0 resolution .1

     Only the UVI version of the EE device has a UVI sensor. Readings made every
     .5 seconds.

   UVI/UVI_offset
     read-write, floating point
     Signed offset to apply  to  the  UVI  measurement.  Stored  on-device  non-
     volatile.

   UVI/in_case
     read-write, yes-no
     Flag  to  apply compensation for the protective case. Stored on-device non-
     volatile.

   UVI/valid
     read-only, yes-no Flag the the EE device type matches the known UVI type.

Moisture Meter
   moisture/sensor.0 .. moisture/sensor.3 moisture/sensor.ALL
     read-only integer
     Up to 4 sensors reading moisture can be attached.	OWFS addresses the  sen-
     sors  as  0  through 3 while the datasheet uses 1-4.  Two types of external
     sensors are supported (and the data range):

     Watermark Soil Moisture Sensor
	    0-199

     Leaf Wetness Sensor
	    0-99

   moisture/is_moisture.0 .. moisture/is_moisture.3 moisture/is_moisture.ALL
   moisture/is_leaf.0 .. moisture/is_leaf.3 moisture/is_leaf.ALL
     read-write yes_no
     Set or get the type of sensor attached to each channel. Note that OWFS  ad-
     dresses the sensors as 0 through 3 while the datasheet uses 1-4.  Two types
     of external sensors are supported:

     Watermark Soil Moisture
	    Sensor

     Leaf Wetness
	    Sensor

     Note  that  is_leaf and is_moisture are complementary and clearing one sets
     the other.

   moisture/calibrate/min
   moisture/calibrate/max
     read-write unsigned integer
     Set or get the upper and lower range for the  raw	data  for  leaf  wetness
     scaling. See the datasheet for details.

   moisture/calibrate/raw.0	..    moisture/calibrate/raw.3	  moisture/cali-
     brate/raw.ALL
     read-only unsigned integer
     Read the raw leaf wetness values for setting scaling. See the datasheet for
     details.  Note that OWFS addresses the sensors as 0  through  3  while  the
     datasheet uses 1-4.

Hub
     4-channel hub. Individual branches can be switched on and off.

   hub/branch.0 .. hub/branch.3 hub/branch.ALL hub/branch.BYTE
     read-write, yes-no
     The  HobbyBoards  hub has four 1-wire bus lines. Each branch is electricaly
     isolated from reflections and shorts, and can be optionally  excluded  from
     the 1-wire network.

     You can turn each branch on or off by writing 0 (off) or 1 (on) to the cor-
     responding  property.  Note that OWFS indexes the branches 0 to 3 while the
     datasheet uses 1 to 4.

     The easiest way to turn all the branches  on  is  to  write  15  (0x0F)  to
     hub/branch.BYTE

   hub/short.0 .. hub/short.3 hub/short.ALL hub/short.BYTE
     read-only, yes-no
     Is  the  corresponding  branch  in "short" condition? (Electrically shorted
     out).

     major/minor decimal value.

     Note: This format was changed as of version owfs-2.9p6 at	the  request  of
     the  HobbyBoards. Formerly reported in HH.HH format where HH is a hex digit
     (0-9A-F).

   type_number

     2	    Moisture meter

     3	    Moisture meter with datalogger

     4	    Sniffer

     5	    Hub

STANDARD PROPERTIES
   address
   r_address
     read-only, ascii
     The  entire 64-bit unique ID. Given as upper case hexadecimal digits (0-9A-

     address starts with the family code
     r address is the address in reverse order, which is often used in other ap-
     plications 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

     nection is behind a Link Locator the locator will show a unique 8-byte num-
     ber (16 character hexadecimal) starting with family code FE.
     If  no Link Locator is between the device and the master, the locator field
     will be all FF.

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-connec-
     tor 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, temper-
     ature,  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  indi-
     vidually 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 con-
     sistent interface. The goal is to provide an easy set of tools for a  soft-
     ware  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 fundamental goal has been ease of use, flexibility  and	correct-
     ness rather than speed.

   EE / EF
     The  EEEF	(3)  are  a  reference	platform  of microprocessor based 1-wire
     slaves. In general they require external power, and have an on-board  index
     for  the specific capabilities. They are designed by Eric Vickery at Hobby-
     Boards.com

     The EE class device uses family code EE and  has  an  included  temperature
     sensor. The EF devices have no temperature sensor,

   UVI
     The  UVI sensor is an implementation of the EE class device with Ultra Vio-
     let Index sensing. All it's specific properties are in the UVI/ directory.

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

     Family Code
	    8 bits

     Address
	    48 bits

     CRC    8 bits

     Addressing under OWFS is in hexadecimal, 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.
