Each open and32read sequence will initiate a temperature conversion, then provide two33lines of ASCII output. The first line contains the nine hex bytes34read along with a calculated crc value and YES or NO if it matched.35If the crc matched the returned values are retained. The second line36displays the retained values along with a temperature in millidegrees37Centigrade after t=.38 39Alternatively, temperature can be read using ``temperature`` sysfs, it40returns only the temperature in millidegrees Centigrade.41 42A bulk read of all devices on the bus could be done writing ``trigger``43to ``therm_bulk_read`` entry at w1_bus_master level. This will44send the convert command to all devices on the bus, and if parasite45powered devices are detected on the bus (and strong pullup is enabled46in the module), it will drive the line high during the longer conversion47time required by parasited powered device on the line. Reading48``therm_bulk_read`` will return 0 if no bulk conversion pending,49-1 if at least one sensor still in conversion, 1 if conversion is complete50but at least one sensor value has not been read yet. Result temperature is51then accessed by reading the ``temperature`` entry of each device, which52may return empty if conversion is still in progress. Note that if a bulk53read is sent but one sensor is not read immediately, the next access to54``temperature`` on this device will return the temperature measured at the55time of issue of the bulk read command (not the current temperature).56 57A strong pullup will be applied during the conversion if required.58 59``conv_time`` is used to get current conversion time (read), and60adjust it (write). A temperature conversion time depends on the device type and61its current resolution. Default conversion time is set by the driver according62to the device datasheet. A conversion time for many original device clones63deviate from datasheet specs. There are three options: 1) manually set the64correct conversion time by writing a value in milliseconds to ``conv_time``; 2)65auto measure and set a conversion time by writing ``1`` to66``conv_time``; 3) use ``features`` to enable poll for conversion67completion. Options 2, 3 can't be used in parasite power mode. To get back to68the default conversion time write ``0`` to ``conv_time``.69 70Writing a resolution value (in bits) to ``w1_slave`` will change the71precision of the sensor for the next readings. Allowed resolutions are defined by72the sensor. Resolution is reset when the sensor gets power-cycled.73 74To store the current resolution in EEPROM, write ``0`` to ``w1_slave``.75Since the EEPROM has a limited amount of writes (>50k), this command should be76used wisely.77 78Alternatively, resolution can be read or written using the dedicated79``resolution`` entry on each device, if supported by the sensor.80 81Some non-genuine DS18B20 chips are fixed in 12-bit mode only, so the actual82resolution is read back from the chip and verified.83 84Note: Changing the resolution reverts the conversion time to default.85 86The write-only sysfs entry ``eeprom_cmd`` is an alternative for EEPROM operations.87Write ``save`` to save device RAM to EEPROM. Write ``restore`` to restore EEPROM88data in device RAM.89 90``ext_power`` entry allows checking the power state of each device. Reads91``0`` if the device is parasite powered, ``1`` if the device is externally powered.92 93Sysfs ``alarms`` allow read or write TH and TL (Temperature High an Low) alarms.94Values shall be space separated and in the device range (typical -55 degC95to 125 degC). Values are integer as they are store in a 8bit register in96the device. Lowest value is automatically put to TL. Once set, alarms could97be search at master level.98 99The module parameter strong_pullup can be set to 0 to disable the100strong pullup, 1 to enable autodetection or 2 to force strong pullup.101In case of autodetection, the driver will use the "READ POWER SUPPLY"102command to check if there are pariste powered devices on the bus.103If so, it will activate the master's strong pullup.104In case the detection of parasite devices using this command fails105(seems to be the case with some DS18S20) the strong pullup can106be force-enabled.107 108If the strong pullup is enabled, the master's strong pullup will be109driven when the conversion is taking place, provided the master driver110does support the strong pullup (or it falls back to a pullup111resistor). The DS18b20 temperature sensor specification lists a112maximum current draw of 1.5mA and that a 5k pullup resistor is not113sufficient. The strong pullup is designed to provide the additional114current required.115 116The DS28EA00 provides an additional two pins for implementing a sequence117detection algorithm. This feature allows you to determine the physical118location of the chip in the 1-wire bus without needing pre-existing119knowledge of the bus ordering. Support is provided through the sysfs120``w1_seq``. The file will contain a single line with an integer value121representing the device index in the bus starting at 0.122 123``features`` sysfs entry controls optional driver settings per device.124Insufficient power in parasite mode, line noise and insufficient conversion125time may lead to conversion failure. Original DS18B20 and some clones allow for126detection of invalid conversion. Write bit mask ``1`` to ``features`` to enable127checking the conversion success. If byte 6 of scratchpad memory is 0xC after128conversion and temperature reads 85.00 (powerup value) or 127.94 (insufficient129power), the driver returns a conversion error. Bit mask ``2`` enables poll for130conversion completion (normal power only) by generating read cycles on the bus131after conversion starts. In parasite power mode this feature is not available.132Feature bit masks may be combined (OR).
