Important Information for the LinkOEM, the
LinkHub-E, and the LinkHub-S

LinkOEM

• LinkOEM will function with 5V TTL signals only.

LinkHub-S

• Each LinkHub-S contains a DS2401 serial number chip on the internal 1-Wire® bus. The
serial number chip will show up on 1-Wire® searches unless the internal bus is
deactivated.
• The LinkHub-S is a powered device
as the 1-Wire® bus. In addition, local EEPROM storage is provided for user
configuration data.
• There are five 1-Wire® busses (one internal and four external) that are logically or'ed
into a single composite 1-Wire® bus. Software written for the Maxim Integrated
DS2480B/9097U interface will work even though the 1-Wire® devices are physically on
separate busses. Each external bus on the LinkHub-S can be up to 1,000 feet long, while
external busses on the Link, LinkOEM, and LinkUSB can be up to 3,000 feet long. This
yields a logical 1-Wire® network of 4,000 feet with four times the network weight of a
standard 1-Wire® bus.

LinkHub-E

• Each LinkHub-E contains a DS2401 serial number chip on the internal 1-Wire® bus,
providing a unique identity. The serial number will appear on 1-Wire® searches unless
the internal bus is deactivated. It may be used to identify a particular LinkHub-E or to
verify that the 1-Wire® bus reading functions are working correctly.
• The LinkHub-E provides
