EWN	Enable Wind display	DWN <on\|off>
HLP	Display a list of available commands	HLP
INI	Search for a list of available 1-Wire sensors.	INI
INP	Display the status of bits 4-7 of the first connected DS2408 (See 1WIO sensor for details)	INP
LED	Actuate a LED on 1WIO or equivalent sensor	LED <LED number> <on\|off> where <LED number> = 1 to 80 or A for All
MEM	Display and change specific memory locations	MEM <start location>
NOR	Set North for a 1-Wire Weather Station Wind Direction Sensor (DS2450 type only)	NOR
RLY	Actuate a specific relay	RLY <relay number> <on\|off> where <relay number> = 1 to 80 or A for All
RST	Reset both DS2423 counters	RST<sensorid>
SCK	Set Clock	SCK dd,hh,mm,ss dd = 1 to 7 hh = 0 to 23 mm = 0 to 59 ss = 0 to 59
SET	Configure all system parameters	SET
SID	Show the Serial Number ID for the 1-Wire Devices	SID {on\|off}
SPT	Set the polling interval	SPT xx xx can be from 00 to 99
STD	Set Temperature Display	STD {F\|C}
TIM	Display Time from Real Time Clock	TIM
TMP	Display readings from all connected 1-Wire devices in either verbose (includes serial numbers) or non-verbose manner	TMP
TYP	Select the type of DS2408, DS2438 or DS2423 device	TYP<sensorid>
VER	Displays the current version of the software loaded	VER
WDR	Wind Direction Reverse (in case your Wind Direction PCB is installed upside down, or in case you want to show the FROM direction instead of the TO direction)	WDR {on\|off}
ZZZ	Performs a soft reset of TEMP08	ZZZ

Using the SET Command

The SET command has multiple parameters.

Update Interval determines the time between sensor readings. Set to 0 to stop polling. Enter the time in decimal minutes.

F or C Display determines how temperature readings are displayed. Enter F for Fahrenheit or C for Celsius.

Serial # Display - set to Yes if you want TEMP08 to display the 1-wire ID of all sensors.

Wind Dirn Reverse - set normally to N. Set this to Y if you accidentally installed the wind direction PCB upside down in your weather station OR if you want to display wind direction as the FROM direction instead of the TO direction.

Set Clock - input the current day (Sunday = 01, Saturday = 07), hour, minute and second. Hours are expressed in 24 hour (military) format only.

DIS output explanations

Sensor numbers do not necessarily match up with the output from the regular sensor output readings. This is intentional. The sensor numbers in the DIS output are the memory locator and are used by numerous commands (the <sensorid> parameter shown in the instruction set). The sensor numbers in the scan output are sequential numbers for each type of sensor.

An OK will be displayed following the sensor type to indicate that the Cyclic Redundancy Counter (CRC) checksum of the sensor's serial number is good. If the serial number has a bad CRC, an NG will be displayed. The checksum is validated during the output of the sensor display.

Letters following the DS2423 and DS2438 indicate the TYPe of sensor equipped. This is a manual input and will be set following first discovery of the sensor via the INI command, and also following a power-up of the TEMP08 for the DS2423 sensors that do not have built-in battery backup (DS2438 sensors of any type will retain their TYPe setting through a power down). The letters designate the sensor type per the following table.

Sensor Types

Designation	Description	OW Device
B	Barometric Sensor	DS2438
C	Counter Sensor	DS2423
H	Humidity Sensor	DS2438
I	Input Sensor (4 bits)	DS2408
L	Output Sensor (8 bits/LEDs)	DS2408
O	Output Sensor (4 bits/relays)	DS2408
R	Rain Sensor	DS2423
T	Temperature only from DS2438	DS2438
V	Voltage Sensor	DS2438
W	Wind Speed Sensor	DS2423

Following a display of the sensors installed, the output of the DIS display then shows the TEMP08 settings that you entered via the SET and other commands.
