[wxsig] Humidity and Pressure Sensor Support

[Clay Cottingham]

Thanks Phil. I just placed an order for the barometer and humidity sensor
and will make sure all is wired correctly. I'm running the original Dallas
Semiconductor demonstrator basic set and didn't have to modify anything, so
we'll see what happens.

Thanks to all!

Clay

Hello all,

Utilizing RJ-11 connectors, the one-wire bus should be as follows ....

 	pin 2	--	ground
 	pin 3	--	1-wire data
 	pin 4	--	1-wire ground
 	pin 5	--	pwr +5 VDC

When I first assembled the TAI8515 ver. 2.0, with the T-238, it required
pin 2 to have power and pin 5 to be ground. I modified the T-238 to
match the TA8515. This was an error. I should have modified the TAI8515
to match the T-238 which is layed out correctly for the one-wire bus.

Acquiring the TAI8570 and putting it on the modified one-wire bus, I got
the same message Jerry received, and scratched my head for a couple of
hours.

I acquired the RJ-11 connection specifications for each device and I
realized what had taken place.

I returned the T-238 to its original design, and modified the TAI8515 to
match.

I now have the T-238 with the latest firmware, supporting and powering
the TAI8570/Barometer, TAI8540/Humidity, TAI8585/Counter with rain
gauge, and a TAI8515/Anemometer, all on the one-wire bus.
