Mango M2M Community

One more question as I am trying to understand requirements and the best and hopefully simplest way to add 1-wire devices to mango. Can I simply come out of a comm port and start adding 1-wire devices that are wired correctly and have mango poll these devices? When and how far is the comm port not enough to supply power to the devices? Does the bus need power from another source besides the comms port? Is it better to use a stand alone controller?? Basically I want to add around 10 temp sensors and 2 humidity sensors and have mango poll these devices, just curious what others have done...

Has anyone integrated one into mango currently, what was the ease of configuration?...just trying to determine if this will fit my needs or Ha7net

Just a quick hint with modbus...before you even start configuring and setting up devices through mango verify serial comms...there are many modbus testers that are open source and some that cost money...if at first one doesnt work try another...remember modbus serial is RS485, you will always need a convertor and make sure your convertor matches your device...simple but for a person new to modbus this may help

Picked one up for 79$ on ebay, unit functions perfectly at 1% accuracy monitoring a 240v panel...setup was fairly straght forward..monitors energy, current, and voltage...next step temperature monitoring

Just a little thought on your product, great work! I set up a third party modbus device in under an hour, a feat unto itself as I have used many software packages that are much more difficult to setup quantities than this one. keep up the good work

The subject says it all, anyone using one of these controllers for 1-wire devices? Just curious if setup is straight forward
