I bought the RP12 module and installed it to my Raspberry by using the Sheepwalk instructions

How do I install the DigiTemp software now?

Hi,

The RP12 is a I2C to OneWire adapter. Digitemp only works with USB or Serial Connector based adapters.

According to your linked website, OWFS and the I2C kernel drivers are the tools you are looking for.

Best regards,

Lars.

Yes I use the RPI2 with owfs on my RasPi.  You can install it from the repository but currently that gets you an older version and there are some problems with that.  You can download the latest version from sourceforge, go to the owfs site http://owfs.org/ and follow the link from there.  There is lots of useful info on that site as well.

There is an active forum for owfs at owfs-de...@lists.sourceforge.net

Cheers
Mick

I have installed owfs and I can see the sensors by using the command owdir and check temperatures from both sensors by using the command owread xxxxx.
But is there any graphic interfaces to be used to follow the temperatures.

Same as recommended with DigiTemp:  http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/ .  Some programming required.

Been happily using it to track temps from five sensors at five minute intervals for over two years.
