Hi All
I would like to add some temperature sensors and lighting counter to my system. Can some one tell which is the best way to add sensors? Labjack or 1-wire, I have extra usb ports. Thanks For your help. Joe :roll: :roll:

well, the labjack is easy to setup in wd, and its works real fast in wd, whereas the 1 wire is harder to setup in wd, but not impossible, slows down the program, but is cheaper though…

Thanks Brian
I was leaning toward Labjack. Will temperature show up on extra temp page? Do I need any special software drivers? Will I be able to see counter for lightening count on that page? Thanks Joe :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

and yes there is a driver, which comes with the labjack
the labjack has temperature or temp/hum sensors that you wire into it :slight_smile:
