> Hi.
> I was looking into the single-wire iButtons, and wanted to hook up aprox 100
> "reader-stations" spread out over 50,000 square feet, which all funnel down
> to a single PC via serial port. (Or perhaps a couple serial ports if need
> be)

> What I envision is having several pics, each having the capability to
> provide contacts to read 5-10 iButtons.. Each of these pics would reside on
> some common bus and eventually stream the data to a PC with a serial port.
> Each contact station would append a "station-id" to the 64bit serial number
> that the iButton reports...

> Has anyone been exposed to a setup like this?
