In order for 1-Wire to be supported under LinuxMCE  1-wire device template is needed. Unfortunately it got lost somehow. Maybe totallymaxed / Uplink_ still have that device template in their sqlCVS

1-Wire has some nice and affordable [http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Category:Weather_Station Weather Stations], their price is around 80$ while EIB/KNX Weather stations are around 600€.

There is an [http://oww.sourceforge.net/ oww project] that provides Linux interface to the Dallas Semiconductor 1-wire weather station.

7. You should now see the Sensor as a child of the 1-Wire device and the status look like this ON/AUTO/AUTO/25 (16.56). With 16.56 degrees.
  
OWFS [http://owfs.org/] is a Virtual FileSystem that sets up the 1-Wire network as a 'Directory' of 1-Wire nodes, which contains 'Files' which can be read or written to. These files are the values related to the 1-Wire node - i.e. temperature, power.  If it is a 1-Wire switch, rather than sensor a value can be 'written' to the file.

8. The sensor can now be added under '''Floorplan Wizard'''
  
With OWFS set up, may be a device template would be easy to implement ?
 
  
As well as temperature and weather monitoring - 1-Wire can be used to monitor Energy Use/Power in the home with a Current Sensor.

'''NOTE:''' This page is currently a WIP and will be expanded when more information is available. Main thing that needs to be added is how to find the address of the sensors.
