1-Wire connection

From Container_wiki

Most 1-Wire modular connectors have ground (sometimes called "1-Wire Return") on pin 4, 1-Wire data and power on pin 3. Ground is usually connected to pin 2 as well.

Most 1-Wire devices leave pins 1, 5 and 6 unconnected (or only passed through if the device has multiple connectors).

Most 1-Wire devices have 6P6C (6 position, 6 conductor) RJ connectors. Pins are numbered 1 through 6. (In AAG and Dallas literature the jacks are sometimes referred to as "RJ12" because they have 6 conductors; but they aren't really RJ12, RJ25 or any other RJ because the RJ standards specify both the connector and the (telephone) signalling.)

Subtract 1 from the 6P6C pin number in order to obtain the pin number for a 6P4C (6 position, 4 conductor) modular connector. Add 1 to get the 8P8C pin number.

In the lists a hyphen indicates connection and an ex no connection. On the left is connection to the other jack; on the right connection internally.

Bare minimal:

  • 3 - data and +5 volt power
  • 4 - ground

"Basic" connection connects all pins between the jacks but only connects pins 2, 3, 4 internally, with 2 and 4 (ground) connected together.

EDS HA7Net

The HA7Net Ethernet 1-Wire bus master connects only pins 3 and 4 (not 2) but it can be jumpered to supply +5V on pin 6 (yes, pin 6). It has three RJ connectors wired in parallel.

AAG TAI8520

The AAG TAI8520 has only the basic connections: pins 2, 3, 4.

AAG TAI8530

The TAI8530 1-Wire power supply has the basic connection (pins 2, 3, 4) and additionally puts +5V on pin 1 of the "Out" jack. It also supplies +12V filtered unregulated on pin 6. Pins 1 and 6 of the "In" jack are not connected.

"Out" jack:

  • x 1 - +5 volt regulated auxiliary power output
  • - 2 - ground
  • - 3 - data and +5 volt power
  • - 4 - ground
  • - 5
  • x 6 - +12 volt filtered unregulated auxiliary power output

AAG TAI8540

The AAG TAI8540 has only the basic connections (pins 2, 3, 4) but appears to be partially prepared to have additional wires attached.

AAG TAI8558

The TAI8558 1-Wire multiple I/O board has the basic connection (pins 2, 3, 4) and accepts auxiliary power input on pin 1. It can thus be auxiliarily powered by the TAI8530 1-Wire power supply.

  • - 1 - auxiliary power input
  • - 2 - ground
  • - 3 - data and 5 volt power
  • - 4 - ground
  • - 5 x
  • - 6 x

AAG TAI8570

The TAI8570 1-Wire pressure sensor has the basic connection (pins 2, 3, 4) and accepts auxiliary power input on pin 1. It can thus be auxiliarily powered by the TAI8530 1-Wire power supply.

  • - 1 - +5V auxiliary power input
  • - 2 - ground
  • - 3 - data and 5 volt power
  • - 4 - ground
  • - 5 x

AAG 1-Wire Wind Instrument

The AAG 1-Wire Wind Instrument RJ connector allows for auxiliary power input on pin 2; it connects ground to pin 5. N.B., this means that if the weather station is connected to other 1-Wire devices by means of a 4-conductor cable then it cannot be supplied with auxiliary power because pin 2 is grounded by the other 1-Wire devices.

A little jumper plug can be installed in one of the weather instrument's two jacks; this plug connects pins 2 (auxiliary power) to pin 5 (ground), thus disabling (grounding) the auxiliary power input. This is needed if the weather instrument is connected by means of a two-conductor cable (which connects only pins 3 and 4) -- e.g., the coiled cable supplied with the weather instrument. To supply auxiliary power to the w.i. temperature sensor the jumper plug must be removed and a three- or four-conductor cable used and connected the w.i. to a device that supplies +5V on pin 2. The "WSI" output on the TAI8595 1-Wire hub fits this description.

iButtonLink LinkHubE

  • The iButtonLink LinkHubE uses an 8 position RJ connector but connects the outer two pins to ground. For extra fun the user's manual of the LinkHub-E numbers the pins in reverse. We use the non-reversed numbers here (in parentheses) and, for comparison with other pinouts on this page, give the corresponding 6P numbers. Auxiliary power follows the pin pattern of the TAI8530 1-Wire power supply but also includes switched 5 on pin 6 (5).
  • (1) - ground
  • (2) 1 - +5V
  • (3) 2 - ground
  • (4) 3 - data and +5 volt power
  • (5) 4 - ground
  • (6) 5 - switched 5
  • (7) 6 - +12V
  • (8) - ground
