In case anyone is still wondering: It took me some time to catch it in the act again, but I encountered the lockup scenario again this morning. I also tried the work-around that I described previously: temporarily changing the ethernet to serial device's serial port to 4800 baud and sending...

Eric, I would expect the serial bit timing to be very good. I'd expect the timing byte itself to be pretty good too. I could try to do a direct connect to a pc serial port, but its not easy as the hub is not closely located to the server. The setup works most of the time, and so it would...

SDA, Yes, I have tried all of the combinations that you have mentioned. I have stopped/restarted the software, power cycled the host etc. The serial cable is not extended, as it runs from my ethernet-serial device server that's co-located with the hub. So that's lets me put the hub anywhere...

The software is 'digitemp', if you're familiar with that: http://www.digitemp.com. Have been through the code quite a bit, seems like its doing everything on the up and up as far as one wire goes. I found it curious that Nightwalker had/found a similar problem, possibly with a different...

I have been using the 6 Channel Master Hub, in conjunction with digitemp monitoring software to read a bunch of 1820s. Every once and a while, the master hub appears to lockup. In each case, the 'Channel 1' red LED gets stuck on, until I power-cycle the Hub. I'm logging temps 24/7 every 15...

Michael, Boy I wish I had found some of your posts sooner. I have been pulling my hair out trying to get the Hobby-Boards master hub to work behind the same IP server (an EPS1). I think I saw a another post from you someplace from a few years ago where you state this is not possible. The...
