Description

       The w1retap package reads weather sensors on a 1-Wire bus and data logs the retrieved data to the
       configured databases or files. It supports a number of different 1-Wire host bus adapters and 1-Wire
       sensors designed by Dallas Semiconductor Corp (now Maxim Integrated) and compatible sensors including
       those from AAG Electrónica and other hobby sensors.

Example

       •   $ w1retap -l -i /dev/ttyUSBS0 -v

Exit Status

0
           Returns 0 on success or failure

Signals

       The w1retap daemon accepts three signals. SIGUSR1 causes it to read all the sensors immediately. SIGUSR2
       causes it to print the current configuration. SIGHUP causes it to re-read the configuration.
