Introduction
Ultra1Wire3 is the next generation HomeSeer plug-in that makes tracking temperature and humidity in
your home easy. By using the Embedded Data Systems Intelligent 1-Wire Interface Adapters and/or
the Midon Design TEMP08 Serial One Wire Interface, this plug-in automatically creates and maintains a
HomeSeer device for each 1-Wire environmental sensor detected. In addition, the temperature,
humidity, barometric pressure and counter values for each 1-Wire sensor are inserted into an
underlying database for graphing purposes.
Intended Audience
This document is intended for the HomeSeer user that has chosen to install and configure the
Ultra1Wire3 HomeSeer Plug-in.
Ultra1Wire3 HSPI Overview
How It Works




The plug-in connects to any of the supported 1-Wire Host Adapters and obtains a list of
supported 1-wire devices.
When using the HA7Net or OW-Server 1-Wire host adapters, the plug-in checks the value of
each connected digital environmental sensor then updates the HomeSeer device and inserts
temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and counter readings into the database.
When using the HA7E 1-Wire host adapter, the plug-in checks the value of each connected
digital environmental temperature sensor then updates the HomeSeer device and inserts
temperature readings into the database.
When using the TEMP08 host adapter, the plug-in reads the output of all connected devices
then updates the HomeSeer device and inserts temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and
counter readings into the database.
Features





Multiple threading allows 1-Wire readings to take place without disrupting the performance of
HomeSeer.
Automatically discovers and builds HomeSeer devices for each supported 1-Wire environmental
sensor.
Logs all temperature, humidity, counter and barometric pressure readings to an underlying
database.
Temperature, humidity, counter and barometric pressure charts are created using AMCharts
http://www.amcharts.com/.
Ability to trigger HomeSeer3 events based on 1-Wire device sensor readings.


Error Try/Catch logic to ensure plug-in doesn't fail with an unhandled exception.
Example Usage





Use Ultra1Wire3 to generate an e-mail notification whenever an environmental sensor exceeds
a set threshold.
Use Ultra1Wire3 to monitor installed temperature sensor in your child’s room and receive email notification using a HomeSeer event when the temperature exceeds a set threshold.
Use Ultra1Wire3 to monitor installed humidity sensor in your basement and receive e-mail
notification using a HomeSeer event when the humidity exceeds a set threshold.
Use Ultra1Wire3 with installed indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity sensors to receive
notifications using a HomeSeer event when it’s more efficient to open your windows instead of
turning on your air conditioner.
Use Ultra1Wire3 along with installed temperature sensor to monitor the ambient temperature
of an enclosed media cabinet.

Ultra1Wire3 HSPI Setup
Before you begin to configure the Ultra1Wire3 plug-in, you’ll need to compile a list of 1Wire device
adapters that you want to connect to the plug-in. For the HA7E and TEMP08, you’ll need to determine
the communications port you used to connect to your computer. For the HA7Net, OWServer and the
MeshNet Controller, the plug-in should be able to automatically discover them on your network.
Initial Setup Checklist
You will need the following information to complete the setup of your 1-Wire setup:
□ Confirm your computer can connect to your 1-Wire adapter.
□ Write down the 1-Wire interface name, type and how your computer connects to the 1-Wire
interface.
□ Write down the 1-Wire sensor addresses and note where each sensor is installed in your home. If you
have never mapped your sensor addresses to a location, then you may need to unplug a sensor one at a
time to determine which address is no longer displayed using the 1-Wire interface adapter search
feature.

1-Wire Network Description
A 1-Wire network consists of a master device connected to one or more branches via category 5 twisted
pair copper wire. In some cases, your 1-Wire network may need 5V power applied by the master device
in order to successfully communicate to the slave devices on the 1-Wire network.
For additional information on 1-Wire Networks, please refer to the Dallas Semiconductor application
note #148 available at http://DalSemi.com/.
Linear 1-Wire Network Topology
The Linear 1-Wire network topology is generally the most reliable. It consists of a single category 5
cable run with the 1-Wire sensors connected using short stubs or branches of less than 3m.

Star 1-Wire Network Topology
The Star 1-Wire network topology is generally difficult to make reliable. It consists of a single category 5
cable run with the 1-Wire sensors connected using long branches often greater than 100 feet.
Reflections from the end branches can cause data errors on the 1-Wire bus.

Category 5 Wire
Embedded Data Systems sells a 1-Wire wiring aid (JB6 1-Wire Junction Box) that solves the reliability
issues associated with star 1-Wire networks by providing six 1-Wire branches, each with individual
impedance matching components. The JB6 junction box is designed to simplify the installation of 1-Wire
networks configured in a star / distributed star topology. Adding or removing a device to the 1-Wire bus
is as simple as plugging it in to one of RJ12 jacks. In addition, the JB6 is designed with two RJ45 jacks that
14
are intended for connection to the main 1-Wire trunk. By providing two jacks, the 1-Wire trunk can be
conveniently daisy chained from one JB6 to the next.
