Scan for 1-wire sensors
The command opens the ‘Add 1-Wire sensor’ dialog that allows the user to select PoKeys pin, where
the 1-Wire bus is connected to. By clicking ‘Scan’, PoKeys device scans the 1-Wire bus for devices.
The EasySensors 1-wire bus implementation can detect multiple 1-Wire devices on the bus at once
and thus simplifying the configuration process.
The list of available devices is then shown in the ‘Detected devices’ list (if ‘Hide configured devices
option is selected, already configured 1-Wire devices are not displayed in the list). On the right side,
reading type and refresh rate of the selected sensor can be configured.
To add the sensor to the EasySensors list, check the checkbox of the sensor in the list and click
‘Finish’.

Add DHTxx 1-Wire sensor
Three types of DHTxx 1-Wire sensors are supported by PoKeys device (sensors differ in temperature
and humidity resolution and accuracy). Any of the available PoKeys pins can be selected as DHTxx 1-
Wire bus, but only one sensor can be connected per pin.

Add analog sensor
EasySensors feature supports reading of simple analog sensors connected to PoKeys analog inputs. A
linear transformation is applied to analog input reading to produce the sensor value. There are two
possible ways to set up the sensor
