Description-en: Backend server for 1-Wire control
The 1-Wire bus is a cheap low-speed bus for devices like weather
sensors, access control, etc. It can be attached to your system via
serial, USB, I2C, and other interfaces.
.
OWserver arbitrates access to the 1-Wire bus from multiple client processes.
The physical bus is usually connected to a serial or USB port,
and other processes connect to owserver over network sockets (tcp port).
Communication can be local or over a network.
