About Sensor Module

The Sensor Module features up to four universal inputs or outputs on a pluggable terminal block with 1-Wire bus master support. The terminals can be used as both analog and digital input/output. For example, you can connect various external digital, analog or resistive sensors. Also, you can communicate with other devices on a 1-Wire bus.

The terminals are connected to the HARDWARIO TOWER header signals. A - P4/A4/DAC0, B - P5/A5/DAC1 and C - P7/A6.

tip

The VCC middle pin is possible to control by software. You can enable 3 V on this pin.

info

The C pin is in default configuration connected also to the ground GND. It is possible to remove zero-ohm resistor R20 and solder it to place R21. This way the C signal is directly connected to P7 and can be used as an extra input.
