Hi Gerrit,

excellent post! I have found my 17 year old weather station, (never used), and after reading your blog I decided to give it a try and connect with Arduino and existing libraries. It works!!!!!

Temperature sensor, wind direction, and activation of the DS2407 switch working with existing libraries.

But when I try to read DS2401 to capture wind direction I have not been able to read anything. Somehow I think it is linked with the switch. I have tried on and off with switch activation but result are the same. I have arrived to a dead end. Any ideas on what to try next? Thanks for your help. I put the last code I try

#define DEBUG

#include <OneWire.h>

#include <DS2401.h>

#include <DS2406.h>

OneWire oneWire(10);

DS2401 ds24(&oneWire);

OneWireSwitch osw(&oneWire,

// Specify the serial number of your DS2407 here.

(uint8_t[]){18, 191, 173, 13, 0, 0, 0, 224});

void setup() {

Serial.begin(9600);

delay(10);

Serial.println("DEBUG:");

if (ds24.init())

{

#ifdef DEBUG

Serial.println(F("Found OneWire Device"));

#endif // DEBUG

}

else

{

#ifdef DEBUG

Serial.println(F("ERROR: No OneWire Device Found"));

#endif // DEBUG

}

if (ds24.isDS2401())

{

#ifdef DEBUG

Serial.println(F("IS DS2401"));

#endif // DEBUG

}

else

{

#ifdef DEBUG

Serial.println(F("ERROR: Is Not DS2401"));

#endif // DEBUG

}

void loop() {

bool status;

// Turn on the switch.

oneWire.reset();

osw.setSwitchState(false);

status=osw.getSwitchState();

Serial.print(status);

Serial.println("");

delay(2000);

oneWire.reset();

delay(2000);

Serial.println(ds24.GetSerial());

delay(2000);

ds24.Refresh();

For anyone interested in producing their own software to monitor MicroLans (multiple 1-Wire chips on a common pair of wires)... it can be done with Lazarus (the "free Delphi") and a simple USB adapter ($25) on a Windows PC... I know... and I suspect (can anyone confirm?) on a Linux box with Lazarus, too... one of the attractions of Linux!

Hi Gerrit,

The article made me look to my 1-Wire weather station again, it was on a shelf for many years. I'm currently trying to get the code running, upto part4 everything works, the final integration of the weatherstation in part5 is not working for me. Do you have a link to the code somewhere for me ? I really would be happy in getting this going again.

I considered the TINI 15 years ago and never got to it, these days I have lot's of fun with the Sparks and Photon.

So if you could help me out it would really be appreciated.

KR,Rudy

Looks very good!

Interested to see how it develops. [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-9c3f7f5b-75f1-4659-8660-0d9e4772e989/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]

I like the simple design.

I remember I got a similar weather kit about 45 years ago that also used mechanical switches to determine the same parameters.

It will be interesting to see if you get any switch bounce from your reed sensors.

Cool project.
