Can anybody tell to a novice, how to make device which can be measured temperature ie. Dallas DS18S20 and with BlueSMirf?
No, I dont know anything about PIC programming, so please do not just answer “Use PIC”
Thank you in advance for your co-operation
You do need a microcontroller of some sort, to read the value from the DS18S20 and send it to the BlueSMiRF. You will have to select a suitable one, learn to program it, and interface it to the hardware. Or, find someone to do it for you.

Thank you Leon for you quite obvious answer. It´s very nice to learn nothing every day… :roll:

Hope you dont mind…
Do you want someone to teach you how to do it, or do it for you? It’s difficult to tell exactly what you are after.

No, I dont ask anybody to do anything for me. Just information will be enough. If you have a link or two in basic, C or assembler code to make a prog for DS1820 → Spark Fun´s Bluesmirf, I will be very happy.
I have some knowledge of programming, but I have never do it with PICs. And I dont like to invent a wheel again, because somebody - I hope so - has already programmed all the mentioned stuff.

What are you going to run the code on? With just the Dallas chip and the BlueSMiRF you don’t have a microcontroller in the system. AFAIK the BlueSMiRF requires serial data to be sent to it.

Oh come on… Let´s not be that silly.
Of course you are right. BluSmirf requires serial data. I know that. If you cannot help or if you dont understand my question, please let it be. This is just useless conversation.

So you want to buy a microcontroller with a one-wire interface, converting the output from the Dallas chip to serial data and feeding it to the BlueSMiRF? Are we getting there?

Right. At last. :idea:
I have Googled a lot of sites to find somekind of PIC software or other stuff for that purpose but no success so far. I know what kind of devices that job takes, but I have no programming skills with PICs. I was just interest to have some code to that purpose, because - as I wrote before - somebody might already did this job. And of course, if that somebody is willing to give his/her code to public. If there is such a code available I then might buy a PIC programming device and make such microcontroller by myself.
Of course if somebody sells a microcontroll with Dallas 1-wire interface →
BlueSmirf I would buy it if the price would be reasonable. That would be a lot of easier than making everything by myself. On the other hand, hobbies are usually waste of money and time. :lol:

A PIC sounds like the way I’d go, but I’m wondering if you could get away with using a DS2480B instead. It takes 5V RS232 commands and interfaces to 1wire. If the bluetooth adapter looks just like another COM port to the system, you may be able to use the driver for the DS9097U and all of the existing software like the OneWire viewer.
It’s a long shot, but it could get you out of programming a PIC if it worked.
