Function
Send data to a device using the 1-wire protocol.
• Pin is a variable/constant/expression (0 – 15) that specifies which
I/O pin to use. 1-wire devices require only one I/O pin (called DQ)
to communicate. This I/O pin will be toggled between output and
input mode during the OWOUT command and will be set to input
mode by the end of the OWOUT command.
• Mode is a variable/constant/expression (0 – 15) indicating the mode
of data transfer. The Mode argument controls placement of reset
pulses (and detection of presence pulses) as well as byte vs. bit input
and normal vs. high speed. See explanation below.
• OutputData is a list of variables and modifiers that tells OWOUT
how to format outgoing data. OWOUT can transmit individual or
repeating bytes, convert values into decimal, hexadecimal or binary
text representations, or transmit strings of bytes from variable
arrays.

Explanation
The 1-wire protocol is a form of asynchronous serial communication
developed by Dallas Semiconductor. It only requires one I/O pin and that
pin can be shared between multiple 1-wire devices.
command allows the BASIC Stamp to send data to a 1-wire device.
The following is an example of the OWOUT command:
.
OWOUT 0, 1, [$4E]
This code will transmit a "reset" pulse to a 1-wire device (connected to I/O
pin 0) and then will detect the device's "presence" pulse and then transmit
one byte (the value $4E).
BS1 BS2 BS2e BS2sx
These actions can be combined in any order in the
Approximately 20 kbits/sec (low speed, not including reset pulse)
The DQ pin (specified by Pin) must have a 4.7 KΩ pull-up resister.
